LETTER  OF  TRANSMITTAL. 


DEPARTMENT  OF  THE  INTERIOR. 

Census  Office, 

Sir:  Washington,  D.  0.,  March  28, 1894. 

I  have  the  honor  to  transmit  the  following  special  report  upon  the  Vital  Statistics  of  New  York  city  and 
Brooklyn,  N.  Y.,  by  Dr.  John  S.  Billings,  United  States  army,  expert  special  agent  of  the  Census  Office.  The 
statistics  and  illustrations  presented  have  been  prepared  by  Mr.  William  A.  King,  chief  of  the  division  of  vital 
statistics. 

This  report  presents  a  number  of  features  which  are  new  in  the  line  of  census  work,  such  as  the  subdivision 
of  the  cities  into  sanitary  districts  and  the  analyzation  of  the  effect  of  immediate  surroundings  of  stated  conditions 
upon  the  death  rates  of  different  races  and  classes  of  people.  The  influence  of  heredity,  as  derived  from  the  mother, 
is  also  shown. 

In  addition  to  the  usual  returns  for  the  census  year  ending  May  31,  1890,  this  report  covers  a  further  period 
of  5  years  preceding  that  period,  making  a  complete  record  for  6  years  and  adding  largely  to  the  value  of 
conclusions  which  may  be  based  upon  the  results  shown. 

As  in  the  preceding  report  upon  the  Vital  Statistics  of  Baltimore,  Md.,  aud  the  District  of  Columbia,  the 
source  of  information  was  the  registration  records  of  the  local  boards  of  health,  containing  the  certificates  of  death 
furnished  by  attending  physicians,  and  is  therefore  much  more  accurate  as  to  the  number  and  more  reliable  as  to 
the  data  than  any  report  based  upon  returns  of  the  census  enumerators  could  be. 

Very  respectfully.

VITAL  STATISTICS 

OK 

NEW  YORK  CITY  AND  BROOKLYN. 

COVERING  A  PERIOD  OF  SIX  YEARS  ENDING  MAY  31,  1890. 


BY  DR.  JOHN  s.  BILLINGS,  I' .  S.  ARMY,  F.XPERT  SPECIAL  AGENT. 


The  following  constitutes  a  special  report,  with  tables  and  illustrations,  relating  to  the  vital  statistics  of  New 
York  city  and  Brooklyn,  New  York,  for  the  period  of  6  years  ending  May  31,  1890.  The  tables  and  illustrations 
have  been  prepared  under  the  direction  of  Mr.  William  A.  King,  chief  of  the  division  of  vital  statistics  of  the 
Eleventh  Census,  who  has  also  prepared  the  descriptions  of  the  several  sanitary  districts  from  data  furnished  by 
Mr.  D.  L.  M.  Peixotto  and  others,  and  to  whom  I  am  indebted  for  much  valuable  aid  in  the  preparation  of  this  report. 

The  data  used  in  the  computations  are  the  population  figures  for  June  1, 1880,  and  June  1, 1890,  and  the  number 
of  deaths  occurring  during  either  the  G  years,  or  the  year,  ending  May  31,  1890,  the  first  being  referred  to  as 
the  "  0-year  period",  and  the  latter  as  "the  census  year".  The  unit  of  area  used  in  each  city  is  either  the  ward,  or 
a  subdivision  of  the  ward,  known  as  a  "sanitary  district",  the  boundaries  of  these  last  having  been  fixed  prior  to 
the^enumcratiou,  with  reference  to  topographical  features  and  character  of  habitation  and  of  residents,  in  accordance 
with  the  advice  of  the  local  health  and  police  authorities. 

As  the  system  of  collecting  data  concerning  deaths  through  inquiries  of  the  regular  census  enumerators  always 
gives  defective  or  inaccurate  results,  arrangements  were  made  to  secure  copies  of  the  physicians'  certificates  of 
death  filed  with  the  local  health  officers  under  a  compulsory  registration  law.  This  work  was  done  by  clerks 
previously  instructed  in  the  Census  Office,  who  noted  upon  a  card  the  information  furnished  in  each  certificate  by 
means  of  the  punch  used  in  connection  with  the  electrical  counting  system  employed. 

In  most  of  the  certificates  the  locality  in  which  the  death  occurred  was  indicated  by  the  street  and  house 
number,  and  in  order  to  locate  these  in  the  proper  ward  or  sanitary  district,  a  street  schedule,  or  directory,  was 
first  prepared  for  each  city,  showing  the  district  to  which  each  numbered  house  belonged.  These  schedules  were 
sufficient  for  the  proper  location  of  most  of  the  cases,  but  in  large  cities  a  considerable  number  of  deaths  occur  in 
hospitals  and  other  institutions,  and  to  charge  a  sanitary  district  containing  a  hospital  with  all  the  deaths  occurring 
in  it,  might  give  an  excessive  death  rate  to  that  district,  and  also  too  low  a  mortality  for  the  other  districts  from 
which  the  decedents  had  been  brought  to  the  hospital.  To  diminish  this  soiirce  of  error,  the  locality  from  which 
each  person  dying  in  hospitals  or  other  institutions  was  received  was  obtained  from  the  institution  records  as  far 
as  possible,  and  the  proper  reference  then  made.  In  the  same  way  deaths  of  nonresidents  occurring  in  New  York 
and  Brooklyn  were  eliminated  unless  the  fatal  disease  or  injury  had  been  contracted  in  the  city. 

Those  cases  which  it  was  impossible  to  assign  to  any  ward  or  district  are  designated  in  some  of  the  tables  as 
"unlocated",  and  in  the  small  rate  tables  interspersed  through  the  discussion  these  have  been  distributed  among 
the  sanitary  districts  upon  the  assumption  that  they  belonged  to  the  several  districts  in  the  same  proportions  as 
did  those  for  whom  a  location  could  be  assigned. 

When  the  certificates  were  copied  for  New  York  and  Brooklyn,  similar  information  was  secured  for  the  country 
immediately  around  them  and  embraced  in  Kings,  Queens,  Bichmond,  and  Westchester  counties  in  New  York,  and 
Hudson  and  Essex  counties  and  the  cities  of  Paterson  and  Passaic  in  New  Jersey,  covering  an  area  termed  the 
"  Metropolitan  district".  These  data  have  also  been  compiled,  and  some  of  the  results  are  referred  to  in  this 
report.  In  transcribing  these  records,  particularly  those  of  the  New  York  counties,  many  institutions  were  found 
reporting  deaths  of  persons  residents  of  New  York  and  Brooklyn.  Under  the  state  law  these  deaths  were  registered 
in  the  office  of  the  state  board  of  health  at  Albany,  and  not  in  the  office  of  the  board  of  health  of  the  city  of  which 
the  persons  were  residents,  but  in  this  report  all  such  are  credited  to  sanitary  districts  in  the  cities  if  the  residence  is 
shown  by  the  institution  records,  or  are  placed  among  the  "unlocated"  for  the  particular  county  if  no  exact  locality 
was  mentioned.

VITAL  STATISTICS. 


As  the  deaths  reported  covered  a  period  of  6  years,  the  mean  population  for  this  period  was  computed  for  each 
city  as  a  whole,  and  for  each  ward  and  sanitary  district,  to  be  used  as  one  of  the  factors  in  computing  death  rates. 

The  process  employed  was  the  usual  geometrical  progression  formula,  using  the  figures  of  1880  and  1890  to 
establish  the  ratio  of  annual  change,  all  "  unknown"  items  being  first  eliminated,  as  far  as  possible,  by  proportional 
distribution. 

The  census  figures  for  1880  give  the  aggregate  i  opulation  of  each  ward  in  New  York  and  Brooklyn,  but  not 
of  the  sanitary  districts,  which  are  now  used  for  the  first  time.  Under  these  conditions  the  ward  totals  in  1880 
and  1890  were  used  to  furnish  the  ratio  of  increase  (or  decrease)  in  each  ward;  and  the  mean  population  of  each 
district  of  the  ward  was  found  by  applying  this  ratio  to  the  population  of  the  district  in  1890. 

The  distribution,  whenever  practicable,  of  all  unknown  details  concerning  either  popidation  or  deaths,  such 
as  unknown  ages  and  unknown  nativities,  in  the  calculation  of  rates,  should  be  borne  in  mind,  since  for  this  reason 
certain  details  of  popidation  and  deaths  do  not  precisely  agree  with  other  statements  in  which  such  distribution  has 
not  been  made. 

The  area  of  New  York  remained  unchanged  from  1880  to  1890.  but  the  area  of  Brooklyn  was  increased  in 
August,  1886,  by  the  inclusion  of  the  town  of  New  Lots  as  the  twenty-sixth  ward  of  the  city.  The  inclusion  of 
this  new  area  for  a  portion  of  the  6  years  in  Brooklyn  would  have  greatly  complicated  the  computation  of  the  mean

New  Lots  prior  to  August,  1880,  was  secured  from  the  state  board  of  health  at  Albany,  and  these  were  added  to 
those  of  Brooklyn,  making  the  return  of  deaths  represent  the  present  area  of  Brooklyn  for  the  whole  0  years.

The  figures  in  this  table  show  that  Xew  York  was  the  more  densely  populated  of  the  two  cities,  having  a  smaller 
number  of  dwellings  than,  and  almost  twice  as  many  people  to  each  dwelling  as,  Brooklyn.  The  open  space  in  the 
form  of  parks  was  proportionately  much  greater  in  New  York,  and  a  much  larger  proportion  of  the  business 
population  lived  outside  the  city  limits  than  was  the  case  in  Brooklyn. 

The  mean  population  of  New  York  for  the  6-year  period  was  1,394,047,  and  that  of  Brooklyn  was  721,914. 

During  the  same  period  the  average  annual  death  rate  in  New  York,  exclusive  of  stillbirths,  was  27.66  and  in 
Brooklyn  24.1  7  per  1.000  of  population.  For  the  census  year  alone  the  death  rates  per  1,000  of  population  were: 
New  York,  26.45;  Brooklyn,  23.89;  Metropolitan  district,  24.61. 

A  comparison  of  these  death  rates  with  those  of  certain  other  of  the  principal  registration  cities  during  the 
census  year,  both  inclusive  and  exclusive  of  stillbirths,  is  shown  in  Table  2.  The  population  used  iu  computing 
these  rates  is  that  of  June  1,  1890,  and  not  the  mean  population  for  the  census  year.

The  variations  in  the  annual  death  rates  of  New  York  and  Brooklyn  for  the  10  calendar  years  ending  with 
the  year  1890  are  shown  in  the  followiug  table.  The  number  of  deaths  and  of  stillbirths  upon  which  these  rates 
are  based  were  obtained  from  the  annual  reports  of  the  local  boards  of  health.  The  population  for  each  year  was 
calculated  by  the  geometrical  progression  formula  from  the  figures  of  the  censuses  of  1870, 1880,  and  1890. 

Table  3  shows  for  Xew  York  and  Brooklyn  the  death  rates  per  1,000  of  population  for  each  calendar  year  from 
1875  to  1890,  inclusive.

4  VITAL  STATISTICS. 

The  variations  in  the  death  rates  of  the  two  cities,  exclusive  of  stillbirths,  as  contained  in  the  preceding  table, 
are  shown  graphically  in  the  following  diagram : 

DIAGKAM  SHOWING  COMPARATIVE  DEATH  RATES  PER  1,000  OF  POPULATION  IN  NEW  YORK  AND  BROOKLYN  FOR 

THE  YEARS  1875  TO  1890. 


RATE 


YEARS 


NEW  YORK 


BROOKLYN 


From  this  table  and  the  diagram  it  will  be  seen  that  tbe  death  rate  in  New  York  has  been  uniformly  greater 
than  that  of  Brooklyn,  and  has  varied  more  widely;  that  in  general  the  death  rates  of  the  two  cities  have  increased 
and  decreased  together,  but  that  from  1S36  to  1890  there  has  been  a  gradual  increase  in  the  death  rate  of  Brooklyn, 
while  that  of  New  York  has  first  risen  and  then  fallen  to  the  level  of  1885.  The  higher  death  rates  in  1881  and 
18S2  were  due  largely  to  relatively  high  death  rates  among  the  children,  produced  by  diphtheria,  scarlet  fever,  and 
diarrheal  diseases. 

In  different  parts  of  ^ew  York  the  death  rates  vary  from  over  50  to  less  than  15,  and  in  Brooklyn  from  over  40 
to  less  than  12  per  1,000  of  population.  Before  considering  these  differences  in  localities  it  is  desirable  to  discuss 
briefly  the  influence  of  age,  sex,  race,  oc  cupation,  and  season  upon  the  death  rates,  and  also  the  relative  proportion 
of  deaths  due  to  certain  causes  in  these  cities. 

AGE. 

Of  the  factors  named,  age  is  one  of  the  most  important,  and  in  comparing  death  rates  of  different  localities, 
or  of  different  races,  it  must  be  constantly  borne  in  mind  that  the  death  rates  of  infants  and  young  children  and 
of  old  persons  are  much  higher  than  those  of  persons  between  15  and  45  years  of  age,  and  a  comparatively  high 
death  rate  in  any  class  of  population,  or  in  any  particular  district,  may  be  due  mainly  or  entirely  to  the  fact  that 
that  class  or  district  contained  a  relatively  large  proportion  of  children  or  of  old  persons. 

The  following  tables  show  the  proportions  of  the  population  by  age  groups  in  eac  h  class,  and  the  corresponding 
death  rates.  In  these  tables  and  others  where  the  term  "colored"  occurs  it  will  be  understood  to  include  negroes 
and  persons  of  mixed  blood,  Chinese,  Japanese,  and  Indians.

The  aggregate  white  population  of  New  York  under  15  years  of  age  on  June  1,  1890,  was  430,463,  and  of  these 
381,514,  or  about  89  per  cent,  were  native,  while  but  48,949,  or  about  11  per  ceut,  were  foreigu.  The  corresponding 
figures  for  Brooklyn  are:  aggregate  white,  244,941 — native,  228,046;  foreign,  16,895;  about  93  per  cent  being 
native  and  about  7  per  cent  foreign.  In  New  York  44.74  per  cent  of  the  native  white  population  was  under  15 
years  of  age,  against  19.09  for  the  colored  and  only  7.68  per  cent  for  the  foreign.  In  Brooklyn  the  proportion  of 
those  under  15  years  of  age  was  smaller  among  the  whites  and  larger  among  the  colored,  being  42.65  per  cent  of  the 
native  whites,  6.48  per  cent  of  the  foreign  whites,  and  24.32  per  cent  of  the  colored. 

The  following  tables  show  the  death  rates  of  the  different  age  groups,  with  distinctions  of  sex,  color,  nativity, 
and  nativity  of  parents.

Some  comments  on  these  tables  will  be  given  hereafter  in  speaking  of  the  influence  of  race.  At  present  it  is 
only  desired  to  call  attention  to  the  fact  that  the  proportion  of  population  in  the  different  age  groups  Las  a  decided 
influence  upon  the  gross  death  rates  of  the  classes  specified.  For  example,  the  death  rate  of  the  native  whites  in 
New  York  was  32.34,  while  it  was  only  23.31  for  the  foreign  whites.  But  44.74  per  cent  of  the  whole  native  white 
population  was  under  15  years  of  age,  while  but  7.68  per  cent  of  the  whole  foreign  white  population  was  under  that 
age.  Moreover,  87.74  per  cent  of  the  foreign  whites  who  were  under  15  years  of  age  were  also  over  5  years  of  age, 
or  in  the  age  group  5  to  15  years,  and  had  therefore  passed  the  ages  in  which  the  heaviest  death  rates  occur,  while 
only  58.85  per  cent  of  the  native  whites  were  found  in  the  age  group  5  to  15  years. 

There  are  also  differences  in  the  death  rates  of  the  two  cities  which  do  not  depend  upon  the  different  proportions 
of  population  in  the  age  group,  since  the  proportion  of  the  population  of  Brooklyn  under  15  years  of  age  is  greater 
than  in  New  York,  while  the  death  rate  is  0.51  per  1,000  of  population  less  than  in  New  York,  and  the  proportion 
of  population  in  the  age  group  15  to  45  is  less  in  Brooklyn  than  in  New  York,  the  death  rate  of  that  age  group 
being  also  less. 

During  the  0-year  period  the  average  annual  death  rate  per  1,000  of  children  under  5  years  of  age,  excluding 
stillbirths,  was,  in  New  York,  for  the  native  whites,  110.37;  for  the  colored,  153.90,  and  in  Brooklyn,  tor  the  native 
whites,  93.78;  for  the  colored,  147.59.  In  New  York  this  rate  varied  for  the  native  whites  in  different  districts 
from  under  55  to  over  170,  and  in  Brooklyn,  from  under  55  to  over  130  per  1,000  of  population.  These  rates  are 
higher  than  those  of  Washington  and  Baltimore  for  the  same  periods  for  the  whites,  which  were,  Washington, 
61.94;  Baltimore,  73.94,  but  for  the  colored  they  are  lower  in  Brooklyn,  while  in  New  York  they  are  higher  than  in 
Washington  and  lower  than  in  Baltimore  (hiring  the  same  period,  these  rates  being,  Washington,  L50.53;  Baltimore, 
103.41. 

The  death  rate  of  the  foreign  white  children  under  5  years  of  age  during  the  6-year  period  was.  in  New  York, 
74.28,  and  in  Brooklyn,  54.96,  per  1,000  of  corresponding  population,  being  decidedly  lower  than  the  rates  for  the 
native  horn,  but  the  differences  in  the  different  localities  were  much  greater,  ranging  from  under  35  to  over  250  in 
New  York,  and  from  under  25  to  over  135  in  Brooklyn,  and  these  differences,  as  we  shall  see,  probably  depend  to 
a  considerable  extent  on  race  distribution  of  the  population.

The  following  table  shows  the  variations  of  the  death  rates  of  the  infants  under  1  year,  and  of  the  children 
under  5  years  of  age  in  New  York  and  Brooklyn  during  the  11  years  1880  to  1800,  inclusive,  the  number  of  deaths 
being  taken  from  the  board  of  health  reports.

It  will  be  seen  from  these  diagrams  and  from  the  table  that  the  death  rate  of  infants  and  of  children  under  5 
years  of  age  was  lower  in  Few  York  in  1890  than  it  had  been  for  several  years,  while  in  Brooklyn  these  rates  had 
been  rising  irregularly  since  1883. 

The  shaded  maps,  which  show  the  relative  mortality  among  the  children  under  5  years  of  age  in  New  York  and 
Brooklyn,  merit  careful  examination,  and  should  be  compared  with  the  transparent  maps,  which  show  the  location 
of  ancient  streams  and  marshes.  It  will  be  seen  that  the  death  rate  of  those  under  5  years  of  age  is  as  a  rule  great  est 
in  the  low  lying  parts  and  where  there  is  filled  ground,  but  to  this  there  are  numerous  exceptions.  The  influence 
of  race  appears  in  the  comparatively  light  shades  representing  the  mortality  of  Bussian  and  Polish  Jews  in  the 
seventh,  tenth,  and  thirteenth  wards,  inhabited  largely  by  this  class. 

The  death  rates  of  the  infants  under  1  year  of  age  require  special  consideration. 

Table  9  shows  for  the  years  ending  May  31,  1880  and  1890  the  death  rates  of  children  under  1  year  of  age, 
exclusive  of  stillbirths,  the  number  of  deaths  during  each  census  year  per  1,000  children  born  during  the  year, 
and  the  death  rate  under  1  year  of  age  per  1,000  deaths  of  all  ages  in  New  York  and  Brooklyn.

From  this  table  it  appears  that  the  mortality  of  infants  was  greater  in  New  York  than  it  was  in  Brooklyn  in 
1890,  and  that  in  both  cities  it  Was  higher  in  1890  than  it  was  in  1880.  The  number  of  deaths  under  1  year  of  age 
per  1,000  deaths  of  all  ages  was  less  in  New  York  in  18(10  than  in  1880,  and  was  but  little  higher  in  Brooklyn. 


NEW  YORK  CITY  AND  BROOKLYN.

The  increase  in  the  death  rate  of  children  under  1  year  of  age  shown  in  this  table  corresponds  with  that 
observed  in  Washington  and  Baltimore  for  those  years,  and  it  may  be  due,  either  to  an  actually  greater  infantile 
mortality  in  1890  than  in  1880,  or  to  a  more  defective  enumeration  of  children  under  1  year  of  age  in  the  last 
census  in  these  cities,  or  to  a  combination  of  these  two  causes. 

The  increase  per  1,000  in  the  death  rate  of  infants  in  1890  over  that  of  1880,  is:  for  New  York,  34.02;  for 
Brooklyn,  58.37;  for  Baltimore  (white),  49.74,  (colored)  102.44;  and  for  the  District  of  Columbia  (white),  13.08, 
(colored)  84.00. 

The  number  of  deaths  of  children  under  1  year  of  age  per  1,000  children  born  during  the  year,  was,  in  1880, 
for  New  York,  211.12;  for  Brooklyn,  177.11;  increasing  in  1890  to  240.84  for  New  York,  and  223.77  for  Brooklyn. 

The  infantile  death  rate  of  the  colored  was  much  greater  than  that  of  the  whites.  During  the  census 
year  the  number  of  deaths  per  1,000  births  was  in  New  York,  for  the  whites,  238.02;  for  the  colored,  410.30.  In 
Brooklyn,  for  the  whites,  221.87;  for  the  colored,  307.13. 

The  following  are  the  corresponding  rates  for  some  large  English  cities  for  the  average  of  10  years  from  1877 
to  1880:  London,  152;  Birmingham,  104;  Liverpool,  183;  Manchester,  174;  and  Leicester,  201.  (a) 

For  some  countries  taken  as  a  whole  the  corresponding  figures  are:  France,  1875-1 882,  10(5.2;  Netherlands, 
1878-1881,  193.2;  Italy,  1872-1883,  209.7;  Switzerland,  1809-1880,  195.2;  Prussia,  1874-1882,  207.S;  England  and 
Wales,  1800-1882,  149.2.  (ft) 

The  increase  in  the  number  of  deaths  per  1,000  of  the  births  in  1890  as  compared  with  1880  is  for  New  York, 
29.72;  Brooklyn,  40.00;  Baltimore  (white),  48.10,  (colored),  95.17,  and  for  the  District  of  Columbia  (white),  13.14, 
(colored),  55.47. 

Let  us  now  compare  the  proportion  of  children  in  the  population  of  these  cities  in  1880  and  1890. 

Table  10  shows  the  number  of  children  under  1  and  under  5  years  of  age  in  New  Y'ork  and  Brooklyn  June  1, 
1890,  and  June  1,  1880,  and  also  the  number  of  population  of  these  ages  per  100,000  of  the  total  population,  with 
distinction  of  sex.

It  will  be  seen  from  this  table  that  the  number  of  children  uuder  1  year  of  age  was  1.38  less  per  1,000  in  New 
York  and  2.37  per  1.000  less  in  Brooklyn  in  1890  than  it  was  in  1880. 

In  every  census  there  are  errors  in  the  count  of  children  under  1  year  of  age,  owing  partly  to  omissions  due 
to  forgetfulness  or  concealment  on  the  part  of  those  furnishing  the  information  and  in  part  to  the  fact  that  children 
10  or  11  months  old  are  often  reported  as  1  year  old,  just  as  children  4  years  and  10  or  11  months  old  are  reported 
as  5  years  old,  the  tendency  being  to  give  such  figures  in  round  numbers;  but  these  errors  should  not  affect  the 
comparison  of  the  proportion  of  infants  present  in  these  two  different  censuses  of  large  populations,  as  the  two 
censuses  were  taken  in  substantially  the  same  manner.

It  will  be  seen  from  this  table  that  the  proportion  of  deaths  due  to  these  infantile  diseases  was  greater  in  both 
New  York  and  Brooklyn  in  1890  than  it  was  in  lsxo.  the  difference  being  most  marked  in  New  York.  Taking  the 
figures  of  Tables  !>.  10,  11,  and  12  and  comparing  them  with  the  corresponding  figures  given  in  the  report  of  this  office 
upon  the  "  Vital  Statistics  of  the  District  of*  Columbia  and  Baltimore",  and  taking  into  consideration  the  fact  that 
the  censuses  of  1880  and  L890  were  taken  in  the  same  manner,  and  by  substantially  the  same  class  of  persons  as 
enumerators,  it  seems  probable  that  the  number  of  children  under  1  and  under  5  years  of  age  was  less  in  proportion 
to  the  total  population  on  .June  1.  1890,  than  it  was  on  June  1,  L880,  in  both  New  York  and  Brooklyn. 


NEW  YORK  CITY  AND  BROOKLYN. 


13 


A  part  of  this  diniinutiou  was. probably  due  to  a  diminished  birth  rate  during  the  years  L889  and  18!)0,  and  a 
part  to  a  somewhat  greater  mortality  from  infantile  diseases  during  the  census  year. 

Birth  rates  are  calculated  from  census  data  by  adding  to  the  number  of  children  under  1  year  of  age,  reported 
as  living  on  the  date  of  the  census,  the  uumber  of  children  reported  as  born  and  died  within  the  census  year,  and 
comparing  the  number  of  births  thus  obtained  with  the  total  population,  or  with  the  number  of  women  of  child 
bearing  ages.  Calculated  in  this  way  the  birth  rate  per  1,000  of  population  in  New  York  city  was  30.04  in  1880 
and  28.38  in  1890,  and  in  Brooklyn  it  was  20.00  in  1880  and  27.07  in  1890. 

The  diminution  in  the  birth  rate  which  these  figures  indicate  for  these  two  cities  is  also  found  in  other  large 
cities,  and  in  the  whole  country,  the  birth  rate  of  which  in  1880  was  30.95  and  in  1890,  2G.G8  per  1,000  of  population. 

These  rates  are  too  low  by  about  30  per  cent  for  each  census,  but  they  are  comparable  with  each  other  if  the 
ratio,  of  deficiency  was  about  the  same  in  1890  that  it  was  in  1880. 

The  corresponding  figures  for  birth  rates  iu  some  of  the  other  large  cities  are  as  follows:  Philadelphia,  1880, 
26.20;  1890,25.12.  Boston,  1880,25.01;  1890,22.07.  Chicago,  1880,32.40;  1890,31.02.  Baltimore,  whites,  1880, 
28.38;  1890,  25.58.    Cincinnati,  1880,  29.85;  1890,  25.58.    District  of  Columbia,  whites,  1880,  2G.85;  1890.  20.98. 

In  fact,  the  only  exceptions  thus  far  noted  among  the  large  cities  to  this  rule  of  diminution  in  birth  rates  are 
in  St.  Louis  and  Detroit,  in  which  the  birth  rate  was  higher  in  1890  than  it  was  in  1880  according  to  the  census 
reports. 

BACE. 

The  mean  colored  population  of  New  York  for  the  6-year  period  was  24,003,  of  whom  1,553,  or  64.70  per  1,000, 
were  under  5  years  of  age,  and  in  Brooklyn  it  was  10,100,  of  whom  865,  or  85.64  per  1,000,  were  under  5  years  of 
age.  At  the  same  time  the  proportion  of  the  children  under  5  years  of  age  to  the  native  white  population  having 
both  parents  native  was  155.90  per  l,00i),  and  for  the  foreign  white  9.46  per  1,000  in  New  York,  and  in  Brooklyn 
the  corresponding  proportions  were  155.0S  and  8.31  per  1,000. 

The  annual  death  rate  of  the  colored  in  New  York  during  the  0-year  period,  excluding  stillbirths,  was  30.27, 
and  in  Brooklyn  29.79  per  1,000  of  population,  and  the  death  rate  of  the  colored  children  under  5  years  of  age  was, 
in  New  York,  153.90,  and  in  Brooklyn,  147.59.  These  rates  are  higher  than  those  of  the  whites,  but  the  excess  is 
not  so  great  as  it  was  in  Baltimore  and  Washington  during  the  same  period,  the  corresponding  rates  for  the  colored 
in  those  cities  being,  for  Baltimore,  32.60,  and  for  the  District  of  Columbia,  33.25.,  For  the  colored  children  under 
5  y^ars  of  age,  in  Baltimore  the  rate  was  163.41,  and  in  the  District  of  Columbia  150.53.  During  the  census  year 
the  death  rates  per  1,000  of  the  children  under  1  year  of  age,  excluding  stillbirths,  were:  for  New  York,  whites 
276.39,  colored  541.06;  for  Brooklyn,  whites  252.39,  colored  460.35,  and  for  the  Metropolitan  district,  whites  261.79, 
colored  445.08. 

From  Tables  6  and  7,  given  above,  it  will  be  seen  that  during  the  census  year  the  death  rate  of  the  foreign  born 
whites  was  less  than  that  of  the  native  born  whites  in  both  New  Y'ork  and  Brooklyn,  and  especially  so  for  those 
under  15  years  of  age.  In  New  York  the  death  rate  of  the  native  born  of  native  born  parents,  or  ''Americans'1, 
as  they  may  be  called,  was  less  than  that  of  the  native  born  having  one  or  both  pareuts  foreign  born,  but  in 
Brooklyn  the  rate  was  slightly  greater  for  the  same  class,  the  difference  being  too  small  to  be  of  any  importance. 

For  the  age  group  35  to  45  years  in  New  York  the  death  rates  were :  for  the  colored,  25.29 ;  for  the  foreigu 
whites,  21.33;  for  the  native  whites  having  one  or  both  pareuts  foreign,  26.24;  and  for  the  native  white  of  native 
parents,  13.50,  and  in  general  it  will  be  seen  that  for  ages  over  35  the  death  rate  of  this  class  was  less  than  that 
of  the  other  whites  taken  as  a  body,  although  this  is  not  true  for  certain  districts.

No  comparison  can  properly  be  made  of  the  death  rates  shown  in  these  tables  tor  the  foreign  and  the  colored 
as  due  to  scarlet  fever,  diphtheria,  measles,  and  other  diseases  which  affect  children  chiefly,  owing  to  the  relatively 
small  proportion  of  children  among  these  classes  of  population.  Consumption  and  pneumonia  are  more  fatal  among 
the  colored  than  among  the  whites  in  both  cities,  and  among  the  foreign  than  among  the  native  in  Brooklyn. 

The  best  means  at  our  command  for  classifying  the  whites  according  to  race  is  to  divide  them  according  to  the 
birthplaces  of  mothers,  and  the  death  rates  of  different  classes  thus  formed  are  shown  in  the  following  tables. 

Table  i5  shows  for  New  York  and  Brooklyn  for  the  0-year  period  the  death  rates  per  1,000  of  certain  races  as 
indicated  by  color  or  by  birthplaces  of  mothers,  with  distinction  of  under  15  years  and  IS  years  of  age  and  upward, 
including  stillbirths.

NEW  YORK 


BROOKLYN 


Table  15  shows  that  during-  the  6-year  period  the  average  annual  death  rate  in  New  York  was  greatest  among 
those  whose  mothers  were  born  in  Bohemia  and  least  among  those  whose  mothers  were  born  in  Eusssia  and 
Poland.  In  Brooklyn  it  was  also  greatest  among  those  whose  mothers  were  born  in  Bohemia,  but  least  among 
those  whose  mothers  were  born  in  Hungary.  The  real  signific  ance  in  the  difference  in  the  race  mortality,  however, 
appears  in  the  columns  showing  the  death  rates  by  age  groups. 

For  those  15  years  of  age  and  upward  the  death  rate  in  New  York  city  was  higher  among  the  colored  than 
among  the  whites,  and  among  the  latter  was  highest  among  those  whose  mothers  were  born  in  Ireland,  and  lowot 
among  those  whose  mothers  were  born  in  Russia  and  Poland  and  Hungary.  For  all  others,  except  the  colored  and 
the  Irish,  Scotch,  and  English  and  Welsh,  the  death  rate  in  this  age  group  was  below  the  average. 

In  Brooklyn,  the  highest  death  rate  of  those  15  years  of  age  and  upward  occurred  among  those  whose 
mothers  were  born  in  Bohemia,  and  next  to  this  among  those  whose  mothers  were  born  in  Ireland.  The  lowest, 
as  in  New  York,  was  among  those  whose  mothers  were  born  in  Russsia  and  Poland  and  Hungary. 

For  the  children  under  15  years  of  age  the  heaviest  death  rate  in  New  York  was  among  those  whose  mothers 
were  born  in  Bohemia  (82.57),  in  Italy  (76.41),  and  the  colored  (75.71).  The  lowest  was  among  those  whose 
mothers  were  born  in  Russia  and  Poland  (28.67). 

In  Bx-ooklyn  the  death  rate  of  this  age  group  was  highest  among  those  whose  mothers  were  born  in  Bohemia 
(90.91),  and  the  colored  (63.75).  The  lowest  was  among  those  whose  mothers  were  born  in  Hungary  (21.16),  Russia 
and  Poland  (27.03),  and  France  (27.81). 

The  two  following  tables  show  the  death  rates  of  different  races,  with  finer  distinction  of  ages,  stillbirths  being- 
included.    These  rates  are  for  the  census  year,  which  will  account  for  the  difference  in  the  rates  at  all  ages  and 
under  15  years  of  age.  as  stated  iu  the  table  showing  rates  for  the  6  years.

From  these  tables  it  will  be  seen  that  in  New  York  the  death  rates  of  those  whose  mothers  were  born  in  Russia 
and  Poland  were  very  low  between  the  ages  15  and  45,  and  that,  at  the  other  groups  of  ages,  it  was  also  lower  than 
that  of  almost  every  other  race.  These  people  were  nearly  all  of  the  Jewish  race,  and  numbered  80,235  in  New  York. 
This  has  a  very  important  bearing  upon  the  mortality  of  tenement  house  population  in  certain  districts  of  the  city, 
especially  in  wards  7,  10,  and  13,  and  it  shows  that  poverty  does  not  necessarily  produce  a  high  deatli  rate. 

In  Brooklyn  the  deatli  rate  of  this  class  appears  to  be  much  higher:  highest  of  all  in  fact,  but  in  the  population 
count  of  this  city  the  Polish  population  was  not  counted  with  the  Russian  but  with  "all  other  foreigners",  which 
is  probably  the  chief  cause  of  the  discrepancy. 

The  heavy  death  rate  both  in  New  York  city  and  in  Brooklyn  was  largely  due  to  the  excessive  death  rate  among 
the  children  of  Irish  mothers,  because  of  the  large  number  of  this  class  of  the  population,  it  being  399,348  in  New 
York  and  196,372  in  Brooklyn  on  June  1,  1890.  It  was  greater  for  those  of  Italian  mothers  than  for  those  of  Irish 
mothers  in  New  York,  but  the  Italian  population  on  June  1,  1S00,  was  only  54,334,  of  whom  10,485  were  under  15 
years  of  age,  and  it  was  among  these  children  that  the  excessive  mortality  occurred. 

In  addition  to  those  living  at  the  date  of  the  census  and  those  dying  during  the  6-year  period,  for  whom  the 
birthplace  of  the  mother  was  reported,  there  were  a  certain  number  ill  each  class  with  regard  to  whom  this 
information  was  not  obtained,  the  proportion  being  greater  among  the  decedents  than  it  was  among  the  living,  it 
being  impossible  to  obtain  this  information  in  many  cases  for  those  found  dead  or  in  a  dying  condition.  It  is 
impossible  to  properly  distribute  those  with  unknown  birthplaces  of  mothers  among  the  several  races,  either  for  the 
living  or  for  the  dead,  and  hence  the  rates  given  in  the  above  table  are  probably  somewhat  below  the  truth  for 


NEW  YORK  CITY  AND  BROOKLYN.

the  foreign  and  for  the  native  born  of  foreign  parents.  Of  those  whose  mothers  were  born  in  the  United  states. 
334,725  in  number  in  New  York  and  268,097  in  Brooklyn,  there  are  two  quite  distinct  classes,  the  prosperous 
and  failures.  The  prosperous  are  very  prosperous;  they  live  in  the  best  part  of  the  city  and  have  very  low  death 
rates,  as  will  be  seen  by  examining  the  figures  for  those  districts,  while  the  failures  are  apt  to  be  terrible  failures, 
and,  when  found  in  the  tenement  house  districts,  to  furnish  very  heavy  death  rates. 

The  excessive  death  rate  among  the  adnlts  having  Irish  mothers  as  compared  with  the  average  death  rate  of 
the  total  whites  during  the  6-year  period  was  mainly  due  to  consumption,  alcoholism  and  its  consequences,  and 
pneumonia. 

The  average  annual  death  rates  per  100,000  of  mean  population  were:  in  New  York,  total  whites,  2,986.03, 
those  having  Irish  mothers,  3,250.04;  in  Brooklyn,  total  whites,  2,590.00,  those  having  Irish  mothers,  2, 714. .'50; 
consumption,  New  York,  total  whites,  385.05,  those  having  Irish  mothers,  <>4.~>.7.'5 ;  Brooklyn,  total  whites,  300.01, 
those  having  Irish  mothers,  452.79;  apoplexy  and  paralysis,  New  York,  total  whites,  7(5.21,  those  having  Irish 
mothers,  100.74;  Brooklyn, total  whites,  7!). 44,  those  having  Irish  mothers,  99.52;  diseases  of  the  heart,  New  York, 
total  whites,  136.81,  those  having  Irish  mothers,  179.21 ;  Brooklyn,  total  whites,  127.56,  those  having  Irish  mothers, 
107.41 ;  pneumonia,  New  York,  total  whites,  287.25,  those  having  Irish  mothers,  343.99 ;  Brooklyn,  total  whites,  229.27, 
those  having  Irish  mothers,  281,07;  and  Bright's  disease,  New  York,  total  whites,  82.04.  those  having  Irish  mothers, 
141.7.");  Brooklyn,  total  whites,  57..V>,  those  having  Irish  mothers,  02.79. 

The  excessive  death  rate  among  those  having  Italian  mothers  during  the  6-year  period  was  mainly  due  to 
measles. (New  York,  total  whites,  46.21,  those  having  Italian  mothers,  198.75;  Brooklyn,  total  whites,  17.75.  those 
having  Italian  mothers,  91.54),  diarrheal  diseases  (New  York,  total  whites,  318.14,  those  having  Italian  mothers, 
42o. 58),  stillbirths  (New  York,  total  whites,  224.00.  those  having  Italian  mothers,  383.15;  Brooklyn,  total  whites, 
180.48,  those  having  Italian  mothers,  273.18),  pneumonia  (New  York,  total  whites,  287.25,  those  having  Italian 
mothers,  455. SO:  Brooklyn,  total  whites,  220.27,  those  having  Italian  mothers,  280.33),  and  homicides  (New  York, 
total  whites.  3.75,  those  having  Italian  mothers,  0.80;  Brooklyn,  total  whites.  1.12,  those  having  Italian  mothers, 
11.44). 

On  June  1.  1890,  New  York  city  contained  40.3,784  persons  whose  mothers  were  born  in  Germany,  and  399,348 
persons  whose  mothers  were  born  in  Ireland;  and  Brooklyn  contained  105,663  persons  whose  mothers  were  horn 
in  Germany,  and  106,372  persons  whose  mothers  were  born  in  Ireland. 

These  figures  are  large  enough  to  make  comparisons  of  the  death  rates  from  different  diseases  in  these  two 
classes  of  some  value,  and  such  comparisons  are  given  in  the  following  tables.

VITAL  STATISTICS. 


These  tables  present  many  interesting  points  relating  to  the  death  rates  of  the  two  groups.  It  should  be 
remembered,  however,  that  the  children  of  Irish  mothers  form  a  much  more  homogeneous  group  than  do  the  children 
of  German  mothers,  since  the  latter  include  a  considerable  number  of  the  Jew  ish  race,  whose  death  rate  is  very 
low.  and  if  it  were  possible  to  separate  these  the  difference  between  the  Irish  and  the  German  death  rates  would 
not  be  so  great. 

A  large  part  of  the  excessive  death  rate  among  children  of  Irish  mothers  is  due  to  tubercular  diseases,  and  to 
the  effects  of  alcohol,  which  last  include  a  considerable  part  of  the  diseases  of  the  nervous  system,  of  the  circulatory 
system,  of  the  digestive,  and  of  the  urinary  organs  among  the  adults.  The  greater  prevalence  of  malarial  diseases 
among  those  of  Irish  mothers  is  due  to  the  fact  that  a  greater  proportion  of  them  live  in  the  water  side  and  tilled 
districts.  The  death  rate  of  the  women  with  Irish  mothers,  from  childbirth  and  its  consequences,  is  very  high,  but 
the  number  of  abortions  and  stillbirths  among  them  is  below  the  average.  Cancer  and  tumor  and  suicides  are 
more  frequent  among  those  having  German  mothers. 

On  June  1,  1890,  there  were  1.970  Chinese  living  in  the  city  of  New  York,  and  the  number  of  deaths  which 
occurred  among  this  class  during  the  census  year  was  57.  giving  a  death  rate  of  28.93,  which  is  a  very  high  one 
when  it  is  remembered  that  they  were  nearly  all  adults,  and  that  the  average  death  rate  of  persons  15  years  of  age 
and  upward  was  for  the  whites  20.36.  Of  these  57  deaths,  -10  occurred  in  sanitary  district  C.  of  ward  0,  and  out  of 
245  deaths  which  occurred  in  the  city  during  the  0-year  period  158  occurred  in  this  district. 

This  would  give  an  enormous  mortality  for  this  locality  if  all  the  decedents  had  been  residents  of  the  district, 
bur  I  am  informed  by  Dr.  John  T.  Nagle,  the  registrar  of  the  health  department,  that  this  large  number  of  deaths 
among  the  Chinese  is  due  to  the  fact  that  in  this  district  are  some  houses  used  for  hospitals  to  which  Chinese  are 
brought  from  all  parts  of  the  city,  and  perhaps  from  some  of  the  adjacent  cities.  Nearly  all  the  deaths  of  Chinese 
are  due  to  consumption. 

CONJUGAL  CONDITION. 

Of  the  male  population  over  15  years  of  age  in  each  city  over  one-half  are  married,  the  proportion  being 
28  per  1,000  in  New  York,  and  551.21  in  Brooklyn.    The  proportion  of  the  widowed  was  37.86  in  New  York, 
and  37.86  in  Brooklyn. 

Of  the  females  15  years  of  age  and  upward  490.84  per  1,000  in  New  York  and  ."ilf.40  in  Brooklyn  were 
married.  The  proportion  of  married  was  decidedly  greater  among  the  white  than  amoug  the  colored  in  both  cities, 
and  the  same  is  the  case  for  the  widowers  in  New  York;  the  proportion  of  widowers  in  Brooklyn  and  of  widows 
in  both  cities  being  greater  among  the  colored.  The  proportion  of  married  is  much  greater  among  the  foreign 
than  among  the  native  for  the  males  and  somewhat  greater  among  the  females. 

Out  of  each  1.000  males  45  years  of  age  and  upward  in  New  York  767.01  are  married:  of  the  native  white 
males  719.07  are  married,  and  of  the  foreign  white  males  784.58  are  married.  Of  each  1.000  females  45  years 
of  age  and  upward  there  are  married  of  the  total  505.31,  of  the  native  492.81 ,  and  of  the  foreign  513.52.  These 
proportions  are  somewhat  greater  in  Brooklyn. 

It  will  be  seen  that  the  difference  between  the  native  and  the  foreign  in  the  proportion  of  the  married  becomes 
less  at  the  higher  groups  of  ages,  which  is  in  part  due  to  the  fact  that  the  average  age  of  marriage  is  less  among 
the  foreign  than  it  is  among  the  native.    These  and  other  ratios  are  shown  in  the  following  table.

For  males  between  the  ages  15  and  45  years  the  death  rate  was  slightly  greater  among  the  single  than  among 
the  married  in  New  York,  while  the  reverse  was  the  case  in  Brooklyn,  but  the  difference  is  so  small  as  to  be 
unimportant  in  the  aggregate.  The  death  rate  is  least  among  the  native  whites  of  native  parents  in  New  York 
and  greatest  among  the  foreign,  with  the  exception  of  the  married. 

Among  the  females  15  to  45  years  of  age  the  death  rate  of  the  married  is  nearly  double  that  of  the  single  in 
both  New  Y'ork  and  Brooklyn,  which  is  largely  due  to  the  perils  of  childbirth.  For  those  45  years  of  age  and 
upward  the  death  rate  is  decidedly  less  among  the  married  than  among  the  single  in  each  city,  while  the  death 
rate  of  the  widowed  is  greatest  of  all. 

Table  23  shows  the  death  rates  per  1,000  of  w  hite  children  of  American,  Irish,  and  German  mothers  in  New 
York.  Brooklyn,  and  the  District  of  Columbia  for  the  year  ending  May  31,  1890,  with  distinction  of  sex  and 
conjugal  condition,  and  the  corresponding  rates  for  Prussia,  Belgium,  and  Bavaria.

It  will  be  seen  from  this  table  that  as  a  rule  the  death  rates  of  the  children  of  American  mothers  were  the 
smallest,  those  of  Irish  mothers  the  largest,  and  those  of  German  mothers  intermediate  between  the  two,  but  that 
in  Brooklyn  in  the  age  group  45  years  and  upward  the  death  rate  of  single  Germans,  both  male  and  female, 
exceeds  that  of  the  Irish.

Some  data  for  estimating  the  influence  of  month  or  season  upon  the  death  rates  due  to  certain  causes  iu 
New  York  and  Brooklyn  are  given  in  the  following  tables  and  diagram.

OCCUPATIONS. 

The  influence  of  occupation  may  become  a  special  predisposing  cause  of  sickness  and  death,  which  should  be 
taken  into  account,  when  it  is  possible  to  do  so,  in  comparing  the  death  rates  in  different  localities,  [t  Is  not  at 
this  time  possible  to  give  death  rates  for  the  several  occupations,  owing  to  want  of  the  necessary  population  data, 
but  something  can  be  learned  by  comparing  the  proportion  bf  deaths  due  to  certain  causes  occurring  among  persons 
of  different  occupations. 

Table  27  shows  for  the  males  15  years  of  age  and  upward  engaged  in  certain  occupations  in  New  York  and 
Brooklyn  during  the  <!  years  ending  May  31,  1890,  the  number  dying  and  the  number  of  deaths  from  certain 
causes  per  1.000  deaths  from  all  causes  for  each  specified  occupation.

VITAL  STATISTICS. 


Ir  will  be  seen  from  this  table  that  consumption  caused  more  than  one-fourth  of  all  the  deaths  among  the 
males  having  specified  occupations,  and  that  the  proportion  of  deaths  from  this  cause  was  greater  among 
compositors,  printers,  and  pressmen,  marble  and  stone  cutters,  accountants,  clerks,  etc.,  barbers  and  hairdressers, 
painters  and  glaziers,  and  plumbers  and  gas  fitters  than  amoug  those  engaged  in  other  occupations,  while  it  was  less 
among  clergymen  and  physicians.  Heart  disease  caused  the  greatest  proportion  of  deaths  among  clergymen, 
lawyers,  and  physicians.  Suicide  was  most  frequent  among  the  barbers  and  hairdressers,  and  the  bakers, 
probably  because  a  greater  proportion  of  these  Avere  of  the  German  race. 

Table  28  shows  for  the  females  15  years  of  age  and  upward  engaged  in  certain  occupations  in  New  York  and 
Brooklyn  during  the  0  years  ending  May  31,  1890,  the  number  dying  and  the  number  of  deaths  from  certain

Among  the  females  having  specified  occupations  consumption  caused  about  the  same  proportion  of  deaths  as 
among  the  males,  being  most  fatal  among  the  accountants  and  clerks  and  dressmakers  and  seamstresses.  Suicide 
was  most  frequent  among  the  school  teachers  in  New  York. 

The  proportion  of  deaths  from  typhoid  fever  was  high  among  the  school  teachers  and  nurses  in  Brooklyn  and 
among  the  accountants  and  clerks  in  New  York,  while  it  was  very  low  among  the  laundresses  in  both  New  York 
and  Brooklyn. 


CAUSES  OF  DEATHS. 


The  relative  influence  of  different  causes  of  deaths  in  the  production  of  differences  in  death  rates  is  an  important 
matter  for  consideration  in  connection  with  the  mortality  of  different  districts. 

Tables  SO  and  .si  show  for  New  York  and  Brooklyn  the  number  of  deaths  which  occurred  from  certain  specified 
causes  during  the  0  years  ending  May  31,  1890,  in  each  sanitary  district,  and  Tables  82  and  83  show  the 
corresponding  average  annual  death  rate  per  100,000  of  population  in  each  district.  The  relation  of  certain 
causes  to  the  death  rates  in  the  sanitary  districts  w  ill  be  given  in  greater  detail  in  the  matter  descriptive  of  the 
characteristics  of  the  several  districts.

DIAGRAM  SHOWING  NUMBER  AND  PROPORTION  OF  DEATHS  FROM  DIFFERENT  CAUSES  IN  BROOKLYN  DURING  THE 

6  YEARS  ENDING  MAY  31,  1890. 


CONSUMPTION. 

In  New  York  consumption  caused  32,781  deaths  during  the  6-year  period,  or  391.75  deaths  annually  per 
100,000  of  mean  population.  For  the  census  year  the  number  of  deaths  was  5,871,  the  rate  being  387.45  per 
100,000  of  population,  or  slightly  below  the  average  rate  for  the  6  years. 

In  Brooklyn  the  death  rates  were  much  less,  the  average  rate  for  the  6  years  being  303.24,  and  the  rate  for  the 
census  year  288.34.   The  number  of  deaths  was  13,135  for  the  whole  0  years,  and  2,325  for  the  census  year. 

Race  distinctions  have  a  very  definite  relation  to  death  rates  from  consumption.  These  death  rates,  during 
the  6-year  period,  were,  for  each  100,000  of  population  of  each  class  in  New  York:  mothers  born  in  Ireland, 
645.73;  Bohemia,  499.13;  Scotland,  384.12;  Scandinavia,  357.00;  Canada,  352.32;  Germany,  328.80;  France, 
324.98;  England  and  Wales,  322.50;  Italy,  233.85:  United  States  (white),  205.14;  Hungary,  155.05;  Russia  and 
Poland,  98.21;    other  foreign  mothers,  286.26;  colored,  774.21.    Brooklyn:  mothers  born  in  Ireland,  452.79;

Other  foreign  mothers,  375.15;  colored,  531.35. 

From  these  figures  it  appears  that  consumption  was  most  fatal  among  the  colored,  the  Irish,  and  the  Bohemians, 
and  least  fatal  among  the  Hungarians  and  Russians,  that  is  to  say,  among  the  Jews. 

Table  32  shows  the  death  rates  due  to  consumption  during  the  census  year  in  each  city  per  100,000  of  population, 
with  distinction  of  color,  nativity,  parental  nativity,  and  certain  birthplaces  of  mothers.

The  highest  average  annual  death  rate  due  to  consumption  during  the  6  years  in  New  York  was  776.26  per 
100,000  of  population  in  ward  2,  while  the  lowest  was  49.16  in  sanitary  district  K  of  ward  22. 

For  the  same  period  the  highest  average  annual  rate  in  Brooklyn  was  1.045.75  per  100,000  of  population  in 
sanitary  district  F  of  ward  17,  and  the  lowest  was  96.21  in  district  I  of  ward  18. 

The  shaded  maps,  which  show  the  relative  prevalence  of  consumption  in  different  parts  of  New  York  and 
Brooklyn,  merit  careful  examination  in  connection  with  the  maps  showing  the  relative  total  mortality  of  different 
districts.  They  indicate  that  consumption  was  upon  the  whole  more  fatal  in  those  districts  where  the  ground 
water  is  nearest  the  surface,  but  not  in  all  of  them,  and  upon  examining  the  detailed  tables  for  the  several  districts 
which  show  either  an  exceptionally  high  mortality  from  consumption  or  one  below  the  average  it  will  be  found  that 
the  controlling  factors  are  the  race  and  age  distribution  of  the  population,  its  density,  and  the  altitude  or"  the 
locality. 

PNEUMONIA. 

The  deaths  from  pneumonia  in  New  York  during  the  0-year  period  aggregate  24,090,  making  the  average 
annual  death  rate  due  to  this  cause  287.89  per  100,000  of  mean  population.  The  number  of  deaths  during  the 
census  year  was  5,112  and  the  death  rate  337.36,  which  was  considerably  higher  than  the  average  rate  for  the  6 
years. 

In  Brooklyn  pneumonia  caused  9,965  deaths  during  the  6  years  and  2,261  deaths  during  the  census  year,  the 
average  annual  death  rate  per  100,000  of  mean  population  for  the  whole  6  years  being  230.00,  against  a  rate  of 
280.40  for  the  census  year. 

The  death  rates  due  to  pneumonia  in  each  city  during  the  census  year,  at  four  groups  of  ages,  per  100,000 
population  of  corresponding  ages  are  shown  in  Table  33.

The  average  annual  death  rates  due  to  this  cause  during  the  6-year  period  in  New  York  per  100,000  mothers 
of  the  specified  nativities  were:  mothers  born  in  Italy,  455.89;  Bohemia,  350.29;  Ireland,  343.99;  Hungary,  279.7G; 
United  States  (white),  272.87;  England  and  Wales,  268.97;  Scotland,  261.09;  Germany,  214.12;  Canada,  211.77; 
Scandinavia,  210.64;  France,  180.79;  Russia  and  Poland,  170.17;  other  foreign  mothers,  204.97. 

The  corresponding  rates  for  the  6  years  in  Brooklyn,  according  to  nativities  of  mothers,  were:  mothers  born  in 
Bohemia,  347.22;  Ireland,  281.97;  Italy,  280.33;  United  States  (white),  210.63;  Germany,  207.63;  England  and 
Wales,  198.10;  Scotland,  180.36;  Scandinavia,  154.78;  France,  146.16;  Hungary,  140.90;  Russia  and  Poland, 
127.06;  Canada,  116.33;  other  foreign  mothers,  265.11. 

The  highest  annual  death  rate  due  to  this  cause  iu  New  York  during  the  6  years  was  593.61  per  100,000  of  mean 
population  in  ward  2  and  the  lowest  was  40.04  in  sanitary  district  B  of  ward  19. 

In  Brooklyn  the  highest  rate  for  the  6  years  was  438.77  in  sanitary  district  D  of  ward  14  and  the  lowest 
was\59.21  in  sanitary  district  I  of  ward  18. 

The  shaded  maps,  which  show  the  relative  prevalence  of  pneumonia  in  different  parts  of  New  York  and 
Brooklyn,  indicate  that  most  of  the  districts  in  which  it  was  especially  fatal  are  either  waterside  districts  or  of  low 
altitude,  yet  it  was  not  especially  fatal  in  all  such  districts.  In  a  general  way  the  maps  correspond  to  those  for 
consumption,  and  in  New  York  there  are  some  special  resemblances  between  the  pneumonia  map  and  that  for 
diarrheal  diseases.  The  race  factor  is  one  of  great  importance  iu  studying  the  relative  prevalence  of  this  disease 
iu  different  localities.  The  relations  of  the  areas  of  filled  ground  in  New  York  city  to  the  local  prevalence  of 
pneumonia  are  also  specially  interesting,  as  will  be  seen  by  applying  the  transparent  outline  map  over  the 
pneumonia  map.  The  influence  of  filled  areas  upon  the  prevalence  of  such  diseases  as  pneumonia,  malarial 
fevers,  and  diarrheal  diseases  is  probably  connected  with  the  presence,  in  the  soil  of  such  areas,  of  more  than 
the  average  number  of  the  micro-organisms  which  cause  such  diseases,  and  this  may  depend  on  the  greater 
moisture  of  the  soil,  on  the  greater  amount  of  organic  matter  contained  in  the  material  used  for  filling,  or  on  the 
imperfect  condition  of  the  sewers  in  some  of  these  localities  leading  to  continuous  soil  pollution,  or  to  combinations 
of  all  these  circumstances. 

DIARRHEAL  DISEASES. 

The  total  number  of  deaths  due  to  diarrheal  diseases  in  New  York  during  the  6-year  period  was  26,514,  the 
average  annual  death  rate  per  100,000  of  mean  population  being  31(5.85.  In  the  census  year  the  number  of  deaths 
from  these  causes  was  4,565  and  the  death  rate  was  301.26,  or  less  than  the  average  for  the  6  years. 

The  same  diseases  caused  12,240  deaths  in  Brooklyn  during  the  (>  years,  or  an  average  annual  death  rate  per 
100,000  of  mean  population  of  282.58.  For  the  census  year  the  number  was  1,890  and  the  death  rate  234.39,  also 
below  the  average  for  the  6  years. 

The  death  rates  resulting  from  these  causes  were  therefore  much  less  iu  Brooklyn  than  in  New  York  for  both 
the  whole  6  years  and  the  census  year.

Taking  the  whole  6-year  period,  the  average  annual  death  rates  from  diarrheal  diseases  in  New  York  per 
100.000  mothers  of  the  specified  nativities  were:  mothers  born  in  Bohemia,  766.73;  Italy,  425.58;  United  States 
(white),  398.34;  Scandinavia,  358.36 ;  Hungary,  328.07;  Canada,  309.96;  Germany,  281.36;  England  and  Wales, 
240.71;  Ireland,  237.64;  France,  217.37;  Scotland,  204.74;  Russia  and  Poland.  195.55;  other  foreign  mothers.  275.60. 

The  corresponding  rates  in  Brooklyn  for  the  6  years  were  as  follows:  mothers  born  in  Bohemia.  1,215.28; 
United  States  (white),  342.25;  Scandinavia,  320.68;  Germany,  296.00;  Italy.  281. 76;  Hungary,  261.67;  Russia  and 
Poland,  225.35;  Ireland,  215.19;  Canada,  211.98;  England  and  Wales,  172.83;  Scotland,  145.08;  France,  134.31; 
other  foreign  mothers,  363.48. 

The  locality  in  New  York  having  the  highest  average  annual  death  rate  due  to  diarrheal  diseases  during 
the  6-year  period  was  sanitary  district  G  of  ward  12  (523.51),  and  that  having  the  lowest  rate  was  sanitary 
district  K  of  ward  22  (49.16). 

In  Brooklyn  the  locality  having  the  highest  average  annual  death  rate  from  diarrheal  diseases  was  sanitary 
district  B  of  ward  18  (530.17),  and  that  having  the  lowest  was  district  B  of  ward  20  (75.00). 

The  shaded  maps,  which  show  the  relative  prevalence  of  diarrheal  diseases  in  New  York  and  Brooklyn, 
indicate  that  the  districts  in  which  these  diseases  were  especially  fatal  were  those  low  lying  and  tenement  house 
districts  in  which  there  was  a  comparatively  large  proportion  of  children,  and  especially  of  German  and  Italian 
children.  It  will  be  observed  that  there  are  a  number  of  coincidences  between  these  maps  and  those  for 
pneumonia,  in  relation  to  which  see  the  remarks  on  the  causes  of  pneumonia,  page  39. 

DISEASES  OF  THE  NERYOUS  SYSTEM. 

During  the  0-year  period  the  number  of  deaths  in  New  York  due  to  causes  of  this  class  was  20,247.  the  average 
annual  death  rate  per  100,000  of  population  being  241.96.  In  the  census  year  the  deaths  numbered  3,468  and  the 
rate  was  228.87,  or  somewhat  below  the  average  for  the  6  years. 

In  Brooklyn  the  number  of  deaths  during  the  ii  years  from  this  class  was  11,724,  making  an  average  annual 
deatli  rate  of  270.H7  per  loo.ooo  of  population.  Of  this  number  2,382  deaths  occurred  in  the  census  year,  the  rate 
for  which  was  295.41,  or  considerably  above  the  average  annual  rate  for  the  6  years,  being  just  the  reverse  of  the 
comparison  in  New  York.

This  class  embraces  certain  diseases,  such  as  inflammation  of  the  brain,  convulsions,  trismus  nascentium,  etc., 
which  are  peculiar  to  or  more  fatal  in  children  under  5  years  of  age,  and  also  other  diseases,  such  as  apoplexy, 
paralysis,  etc.,  which  occur  but  seldom  in  persons  under  5  years  of  age.  For  this  reason  the  remarks  heretofore 
made  concerning  the  diiferences  in  the  proportion  of  children  existing  in  the  native  and  foreign  classes,  and  also 
the  excess  of  children  having  native  mothers,  should  be  remembered  in  comparing  the  rates  given  below. 

Table  37  shows  the  death  rates  due  to  diseases  of  the  nervous  system  during  the  census  year  in  each  city  at 
four  groups  of  ages  per  100,000  population  of  corresponding  ages.

It  appears  from  this  statement  that  the  death  rates  from  these  causes  at  and  above  15  years  of  age  were  very 
nearly  equal  in  New  York  and  Brooklyn,  the  excessive  death  rate  in  the  latter  city  being  entirely  in  the  ages 
under  15  years. 

The  number  of  deaths  occurring  in  Mew  York  from  causes  in  this  class  during  the  0  years  at  ages  under  5 
years  was  456.31  out  of  1,000  deaths  of  all  ages.  For  the  census  year  the  proportion  was  considerably  less,  being 
390.35  per  1,000  of  all  ages. 

In  Brooklyn  the  proportion  of  all  deaths  in  this  class  which  occurred  under  5  years  of  age  was  higher  than  in 
New  York,  and  higher  in  the  census  year  than  for  the  0  years,  the  numbers  being  491.29  for  the  average  of  the  6 
years  and  515.11  for  the  census  year. 

Table  38  shows  the  death  rates  resulting  from  diseases  of  the  nervous  system  during  the  census  year  in  each 
city  per  100,000  of  population,  with  distinction  of  color,  nativity,  parental  nativity,  and  certain  birthplaces  of 
mothers.

For  the  whole  0  years  the  average  annual  death  rates  from  these  causes  in  New  York  per  100,000  mothers  of 
the  specified  nativities  were  as  follows:  mothers  born  in  Bohemia,  33G.7G;  United  States  (white),  293.48;  Italy, 
258.73;  Ireland,  242.44;  England  and  Wales,  240.71;  Scotland,  236.67;  France,  218.45;  Germany,  197.39;  Canada, 
196.37;  Hungary,  192.13;  Scandinavia,  168.24;  Bussia  and  Poland,  117.68;  other  foreign  mothers,  165.76. 

In  Brooklyn  the  corresponding  rates  for  the  6  years  were:  mothers  born  in  Bohemia,  607.64;  United  States 
(white),  323.83;  Ireland,  257.43;  England  and  Wales,  247.16;  Germany,  223.90;  France,  209.37;  Italy,  205.96;

mothers,  271.78. 

Comparing  the  different  sanitary  districts  in  New  York  for  the  6-year  period,  we  find  that  the  highest  average 
annual  death  rate  due  to  the  causes  of  this  class  was  487.06  in  ward  2,  and  the  lowest  was  95.17  in  sanitary  district 
M  of  ward  22. 

In  Brooklyn  the  corresponding  rates  were:  highest,  406.12  in  sanitary  district  A  of  ward  18,  and  the  lowest 
115.07  in  district  A  of  ward  8.

VITAL  STATISTICS. 


DIPHTHERIA  AND  CROUP. 

The  total  number  of  deaths  from  diphtheria  and  croup  in  New  York  during  the  6-year  period  was  15,199,  the 
average  annual  death  rate  per  100,000  of  population  being  181.G3.  For  the  census  year  the  rate  was  considerably 
less,  being  123.41  and  the  number  of  deaths  1,870. 

In  Brooklyn  diphtheria  and  croup  caused  7,122  deaths  during  the  G  years,  and  1,366  in  the  census  year,  the 
rate  for  the  latter,  which  was  169.41,  being  slightly  in  excess  of  the  average  annual  rate  for  the  6  years,  namely, 
164.42.' 

Table  39  shows  for  each  city  the  death  rates  due  to  diphtheria  and  croup  during  the  census  year  at  five  groups

The  highest  average  annual  death  rate  due  to  diphtheria  and  croup  during  the  6  years  in  New  York  was  302.88 
in  sanitary  district  C  of  ward  19,  and  the  lowest  was  32.71  in  district  D  of  ward  18. 

In  Brooklyn  the  highest  rate  for  the  same  time  was  440.79  in  sanitary  district  D  of  ward  8,  and  the  lowest 
was  34. 1L  in  district  A  of  ward  24. 

The  shaded  maps,  which  show  the  relative  prevalence  of  diphtheria  and  croup  in  different  parts  of  New  York 
and  Brooklyn,  indicate  that  the  districts  in  which  it  was  especially  fatal  were  mostly  low  lying,  with  ground  water 
not  far  from  the  surface,  and  in  New  York,  that  it  was  especially  prevalent  in  some  of  the  districts  containing 
much  filled  ground.  It  was  most  prevalent  as  a  rule  in  the  most  densely  populated  districts,  but  to  this  there  are 
sonic  exceptions. 

DISEASES  OF  THE  URINARY  ORGANS. 

During  the  6-year  period  the  number  of  deaths  in  New  York  due  to  this  class  was  14,537,  the  average  annual 
death  rate  per  100,000  of  population  being  173.72.  In  the  census  year  the  deaths  numbered  2,542  and  the  rate 
w  as  167.76,  being  somewhat  below  the  average  for  the  6  years. 

In  Brooklyn  the  number  of  deaths  during  the  6  years  from  this  class  of  causes  was  4,889,  making  an  average 
annual  death  rate  of  H2.S7  per  100,000  of  population.  There  were  977  deaths  from  this  class  during  the  census 
year,  oi  a  death  rate  of  121.16,  which  was  above  the  average  for  the  6  years,  being  just  the  reverse  of  the 
comparison  in  New  York.

For  the  6-year  period  the  average  annual  death  rates  from  this  class  of  causes  in  New  York  per  100,000 
mothers  of  the  specified  nativities  weir  as  follows:  mothers  born  in  Ireland.  272.45;  Scotland,  214.13;  England  and 
Wales,  206.13;  Bohemia,  154.85;  France.  150.65;  Germany.  141. 7S;  Canada,  134.77;  United  States  (white),  124.14; 
Scandinavia,  106.69;  Italy,  73.38:  Hungary,  51.68;  Russia  aud  Poland,  48.34;  other  foreign  mothers,  87.93. 

In  Brooklyn  the  corresponding  rates  for  the  6  years  were:  mothers  born  in  Bohemia.  260.42;  Ireland.  171.38; 
England  and  Wales.  121.91:  Scotland.  101.94:  France.  94.81;  Germany.  92.07 :  United  States  (white),  80.20:  Canada. 
77.56;  Scandinavia,  53.02;  Russia  aud  Poland.  47.95;  Italy,  40.05;  other  foreign  mothers;  133.39.  There  were  no 
deaths  from  this  class  of  causes  reported  among  those  whose  mothers  were  bora  in  Hungary. 

Comparing  the  different  sanitary  districts  in  New  York  for  the  6-year  period,  we  find  that  the  highest  average 
annual  rate  due  to  this  class  of  causes  was  334.86  in  ward  2,  and  the  lowest  was  31.72  in  sanitary  district  M  of 
ward  22. 

In  Brooklyn  the  corresponding  rates  were  highest  (326.80)  in  sanitary  district  F  of  ward  17,  and  lowest  (37.40) 
in  sanitary  district  E  of  ward  24. 

HEART  DISEASE  AND  DROPSY. 

The  number  of  deaths  from  these  causes  during  the  6-year  period  in  New  York  was  11,568,  and  the  average 
annual  death  rate  per  100,000  of  mean  population  was  138.24.  During  the  census  year  the  number  was  1,952,  and 
the  death  rate  per  100,000  of  population  was  128.82. 

In  Brooklyn  these  diseases  caused  5,681  deaths  during  the  6  years,  the  average  annual  death  rate  being  131.16. 
For  the  census  year  the  number  of  deaths  was  1.097  and  the  death  rate  was  136.05.  The  death  rate  due  to  heart 
disease  and  dropsy  was  therefore  greater  during  the  census  year  and  less  for  the  average  of  the  6  years  in 
Brooklvn  than  in  New  York.

Taking  the  6-year  period,  the  average  annual  death  rates  from  these  causes  in  New  York  per  100,000  mothers, 
according  to  nativity  of  the  mother,  were  as  follows:  France,  89.32;  England  and  Wales,  82.12;  Germany,  71.12; 
Scotland,  70.44;  Ireland,  69.39;  Bohemia,  69.16;  Canada,  67.38;  United  States  (white),  45.25;  Scandinavia,  27.36;

DISEASES  OF  THE  LIVER. 

In  New  York  diseases  of  the  liver  caused  2,764  deaths  during  the  6-year  period,  or  33.03  deaths  annually  per 
100,000  of  mean  population.  For  the  census  year  the  number  of  deaths  was  478,  the  rate  being  31.54  per  100,000 
of  population,  or  somewhat  below  the  average  for  the  6  years. 

In  Brooklyn  the  death  rates  due  to  this  cause  were  higher.  There  were  1,557  deaths  during  the  6-year  period, 
the  average  rate  per  100,000  of  mean  population  being  35.95.  The  number  of  deaths  during  the  census  year  was 
283,  and  the  death  rate  was  35.10,  which  was  but  little  below  the  average  for  the  6  years. 

Table  47  shows  the  death  rates  due  to  diseases  of  the  liver  during  the  census  year  at  three  groups  of  ages 
per  100,000  population  of  corresponding  ages.

From  this  statement  it  appears  that  the  higher  death  rate  from  this  cause  in  Brooklyn  was  among  those  under 
15  and  over  45  years  of  age.  The  rate  for  those  between  15  and  45  years  of  age  was  less  in  Brooklyn  than  in

MALARIAL  FEVEK. 

During  the  6-year  period  malarial  fever  caused  2,060  deaths  in  New  York,  or  24.62  deaths  annually  per  100.000 
of  mean  populatiou.  During  the  census  year  it  caused  243  deaths,  or  16.04  per  100,000  of  population,  the  rate 
being  decidedly  below  the  average  for  the  6  years. 

In  Brooklyn  the  total  deaths  from  this  cause  during  the  6  years  were  1,413,  or  32.62  per  100.000  of  population.

The  average  annual  death  rates  due  to  this  cause  during  the  6-year  period  in  New  York  per  100,000  mothers  of 
specified  nativities  were:  Ireland,  32.11;  United  States  (white).  39.33;  England  and  Wales,  28.93:  Canada,  28.88;

Russia  and  Poland,  4.37:  other  foreign  mothers.  13.55. 

The  corresponding  rates  for  the  0  years  in  Brooklyn  according  bo  birthplaces  of  mothers  were:  Canada.  43.95; 
Ireland.  41.51 :  Italy.  34.-33:  Scotland,  31.37;  England  and  Wales,  31.22:  L'nited  States  (white).  29.28:  Scandinavia. 
28.22:  Germany.  27.09:  France,  19.75:  Kussia  and  Poland.  4.79;  other  foreign  mothers,  36.68. 

No  deaths  from  malarial  fever  were  reported  as  occurring  during  the  6  years  in  two  sanitary  districts  in  each 

city. 

The  highest  annual  death  rate  from  this  cause  per  100.000  of  mean  population  in  New  York  was  84.38  in  ward 
24,  and  the  lowest  was  4.73  in  sanitary  district  P  of  ward  12. 

xIu  Brooklyn  the  highest  annual  rate  was  85.13  in  sanitary  district  \)  of  ward  14.  and  the  lowest  was  9.31  in 
district  Cof  ward  22.  It  should  be  rememl>ered  that  in  those  districts  where  malaria  was  prevalent  a  considerable 
part  of  its  effects  does  not  appear  in  the  death  rates  attributed  to  u  malarial  fevers",  since  it  complicates  other 
forms  of  disease  and  increases  the  death  rates  from  pneumonia  and  diseases  of  the  digestive  and  nervous  system. 
The  relations  of  the  death  rate  from  malarial  fevers  to  altitude  are  given  in  Tables  73  and  74. 


TYPHOID  FEVER/ 

Typhoid  fever  caused  2.031  deaths  in  New  Vork  during  the  0  year  period,  the  average  annual  death  rate  from 
this  cause  per  100.000  of  mean  population  being  24.27.  For  the  census  year  the  number  of  deaths  was  348  and  the 
deatli  rate  22.97  per  100,000  of  population,  or  less  than  the  average  for  the  6  years. 

The  number  of  deaths  from  this  cause  in  Brooklyn  during  the  6  years  was  1.002,  the  average  annual  rate 
being  23.13.  and  the  number  of  deaths  in  the  census  year  was  K»4.  making  a  death  rate  of  24.00  per  100.000  of 
population.    En  the  Metropolitan  district  during  the  census  year  the  death  rate  from  typhoid  fever  was  30.58. 

The  average  death  rate  from  this  cause  in  Brooklyn  was  less  than  in  New  York  for  the  6-year  period  but 
greater  for  the  census  year,  during  which  last  period  it  was  less  in  each  city  than  it  was  in  the  rest  of  the 
Metropolitan  district. 

Table  51  shows  the  death  rate  due  to  typhoid  fever  during  the  census  year  in  each  city  at  three  groups  of 
ages  i>cr  100.000  population  of  those  ages.

Taking  the  6  years,  the  average  annual  death  rates  from  typhoid  fever  in  New  York  per  100,000  mothers  of  the 
specified  nativities  were  as  follows:  mothers  born  in  Scandinavia,  43.77;  England  and  Wales,  28.93;  Canada, 
28.88;  Germany,  28.01;  Italy,  20.16;  Ireland,  25.56;  Scotland,  24.42 ;  France,  18.29;  Bohemia,  18.04;  United  States 
(white),  17.40;  Hungary,  12.36;  Russia  and  Poland,  9.19;  other  foreign  mothers,  23.64. 

The  corresponding  rates  in  Brooklyn  were:  mothers  born  in  Scandinavia,  32.50;  Ireland,  22.32;  England  and 
Wales,  22.30;  Germany,  21.82;  Russia  and  Poland,  21.58;  United  States  (white),  21.57 ;  Hungary,  20.13;  Scotland, 
19.60;  Canada,  18.10;  France,  11.85;  Italy,  10.01;  other  foreign  mothers,  26.68. 

There  were  no  deaths  from  this  cause  in  two  sanitary  districts  in  New  York  and  three  sanitary  districts  in 
Brooklyn  during  the  6  years. 

Of  the  districts  in  New  York  in  which  deaths  occurred  from  this  cause  the  highest  annual  rate  per  100,000  of 
population  was  76.10  in  ward  2  and  the  lowest  was  4.35  in  sanitary  district  E  of  ward  12. 

The  sanitary  district  having  the  highest  annual  death  rate  from  this  cause  in  Brooklyn  during  the  0  years  was 
district  B  of  ward  23  (69.66),  while  the  lowest  rate  for  the  same  time  was  3.75  in  district  G  of  ward  18. 

CHILDBIRTH  AND  PUERPERAL  DISEASES. 

The  death  rates  per  100,000  of  population  due  to  childbirth  and  puerperal  diseases  vary  greatly  in  different 
localities  in  New  York  and  Brooklyn,  but  these  differences  depend  so  much  on  the  proportion  of  women  of 
childbearing  ages  present  in  the  different  districts  that  they  have  little  scientific  interest  or  value. 

If  we  take  the  women  between  15  and  45  years  of  age  we  find  that  during  the  census  year  out  of  each  100,000 
of  such  women  there  died  of  childbirth  and  puerperal  diseases  in  New  York  83.11,  in  Brooklyn  64.44. 

Table  53  shows  the  death  rates  due  to  childbirth  and  puerperal  diseases  during  the  census  year  in  each  city 
per  100,000  women  between  the  ages  of  15  and  45  years,  with  distinction  of  color,  nativity,  parental  nativity,  and 
birthplaces  of  mothers.

From  this  it  would  appear  that  the  death  rate  from  these  causes  in  New  York  was  more  than  twice  as  great 
among  the  foreign  as  it  was  among  the  native  of  native  parents  and  greater  than  it  was  among  the  colored;  that  it 
was  greatest  of  all  in  both  cities  among  the  Italians,  and  that  it  was  very  high  . among  the  Germans  and  the 
Russians  and  Poles. 

The  actual  number  of  deaths  from  these  causes  was  too  small  to  make  the  ratios  derived  from  them  of  much 
value,  and  the  reason  why  the  death  rates  are  higher  among  the  foreign  born  is  probably  the  fact  that  a  much 
larger  proportion  of  women  of  this  class  are  attended  by  ignoraut  and  unskilled  midwives  than  is  the  case  for  American 
women. 

STILLBIRTHS. 

The  number  of  stillbirths  daring  the  6-year  period  in  New  York  was  18,862,  the  average  annual  number  per 
100,0(10  of  mean  population  being  225.41.  For  the  census  year  the  number  was  3,302  and  the  rate  per  100,000  of 
population  217.91.  being  slightly  less  than  the  average  for  the  6  years. 

In  Brooklyn  7,754  stillbirths  were  reported  as  occurring  during  the  6  years,  the  average  annual  number  per 
100,000  of  mean  population  being  170.01.  The  rate  for  the  census  year  was  103.31,  which  was  also  below  the 
average  for  the  6  years.    The  actual  number  of  stillbirths  in  the  census  year  was  1,333. 

Table  54  shows  for  New  York  and  Brooklyn  the  average  annual  number  of  stillbirths  during  the  6-year  period 
per  100,000  of  mean  population,  with  distinction  of  color  and  birthplaces  of  mothers  for  the  whites.

The  remarks  made  above  with  regard  to  the  death  rates  from  childbirth  and  puerperal  diseases  apply  also  to  a 
considerable  extent  to  the  death  rates  from  stillbirths.  Since  the  ratios  to  total  population  are  so  much  affected 
by  the  number  of  women  of  childbearing  ages  in  each  class  they  are  of  little  scientific  value. 

Table  55  shows  for  New  York  and  Brooklyn  for  the  census  year  the  number  of  stillbirths  per  100,000  ot  women 
from  15  to  45  years  of  age.  with  distinction  of  color  and  birthplaces  of  mothers.

VITAL  STATISTICS. 


From  this  table  it  will  be  seen  that  the  proportion  of  stillbirths  was  greater  in  New  York  among  the  colored 
than  among  the  whites,  while  the  reverse  was  the  case  in  Brooklyn.  In  New  York  city  it  was  greatest  of  all 
among  the  Italian  mothers,  next  among  the  Hungarian  mothers,  and  next  among  the  American  mothers,  while  it 
was  lowest  among  the  Scotch  and  Irish  mothers.  In  Brooklyn  it  was  greatest  among  the  Russian  and  Polish, 
the  Italian  and  the  native  American  mothers  and  lowest  among  the  French  and  English  mothers. 

The  number  of  stillbirths  per  100.000  of  total  population  varies  greatly  in  different  localities,  being  greatest  as 
a  rule  in  the  tenement  house  districts,  but  for  the  reason  stated  above  these  rates  have  little  scientific  value. 

SUICIDES. 

During  the  6-year  period  there  were  1,311  suicides  in  New  York,  or  15.07  annually  per  100,000  of  mean 
population.  During  the  census  year  there  were  227  or  14.98  per  100,000  of  population,  the  rate  being  below  the 
average. 

In  Brooklyn  the  death  rate  from  this  cause  was  much  less;  365  deaths  due  to  it  occurred  during  the  6  years 
and  78  during  the  census  year,  the  rates  per  100,000  of  population  being  for  the  6  years  8.43  and  for  the  census 
year  9.67.    The  rate  for  the  census  year  was  higher  than  that  for  the  6  years. 

Table  56  shows  the  death  rates  per  100,000  of  population  due  to  suicides  during  the  census  year  at  two 
groups  of  ages.

From  this  table  it  appears  that  the  death  rates  from  this  cause  were  higher  in  New  York  than  in  Brooklyn  at 
both  groups  of  ages,  the  greater  excess  being  among  those  under  45  years  of  age. 

Table  57  shows  the  death  rates  per  100,000  of  population  over  15  years  of  age  due  to  suicides  in  New  York 
and  Brooklyn  during  the  census  year,  with  distinction  of  color,  nativity,  parental  nativity,  and  birthplaces  of 
mothers.

The  actual  number  of  suicides  in  most  of  the  groups  by  birthplaces  of  mothers  was  too  small  to  make  the 
rates  of  much  value,  but  the  high  rate  from  this  cause  among  the  Germans  as  compared  with  the  Irish  and  the 
Americans  is  really  significant. 


NEW  YORK  CITY  AND  BROOKLYN.

OTHEE  ACCIDENTS  AND  INJURIES. 

During  the  6-year  period  there  were  8,212  deaths  in  New  York  due  to  accidents  and  injuries,  excluding  suicides, 
or  98.14  deaths  annually  per  100,000  of  mean  population.  During  the  census  year  there  were  1,497  deaths,  or  98.79 
per  100,000  of  population,  the  rate  being  slightly  above  the  average. 

In  Brooklyn  the  death  rates  due  to  this  cause  were  less  both  in  the  census  year  and  in  the  average  for  the  6 
years.  The  number  of  deaths  due  to  this  cause  during  the  0  years  was  2,044,  or  61.04  annually  per  100,000  of 
population.  During  the  census  year  there  were  441  deaths,  or  .")4.6!>  per  100,000  of  population,  the  death  rate 
being  below  the  average  for  the  6  years. 

For  persons  from  15  to  45  years  of  age  the  death  rate  from  accidents  per  100,000  of  population  was.  in  New 
York,  85.82;  in  Brooklyn,  47.64;  while  for  those  45  years  of  age  and  upward  it  was  in  New  York  158.69,  and  in 
Brooklyn  97.38. 

Table  58  shows  the  death  rates  due  to  accidents  and  injuries  per  100,000  of  population  during  the  census  year, 
with  distinction  of  color,  nativity,  parental  nativity,  and  certain  birthplaces  of  mothers.

This  shows  that  in  New  York  the  death  rate  from  accidents  was  highest  among  the  Irish  and  the  colored. 
Table  59  shows  for  each  ward  and  sanitary  district  in  New  York  the  number  of  deaths  due  to  suicides  and  to 
accidents  during  the  6-year  period,  with  the  corresponding  average  annual  death  rates.

Tables  63  and  64,  compared  with  Tables  01  and  G2,  show  the  differences  in  the  death  rates  for  the  aggregate 
and  for  the  total  of  each  class  due  to  the  number  of  stillbirths,  and  compared  with  Tables  Go  and  66,  show  the 
difference  in  the  rates  under  5  years  of  age  due  to  the  same  cause.  The  rates  given  in  Tables  65  and  66  for  5  years 
of  age  and  over  are  not  affected  by  the  exclusion  of  the  stillbirths.

It  will  be  seen  that  there  are  great  differences  in  the  death  rates  of  the  different  districts,  and  the  causes  of 
these  differences  are  worth  careful  study.  These  causes  are  many  and  various,  and  the  data  given  in  this  report 
with  regard  to  them  are  necessarily  imperfect,  and  can  only  indicate  the  locations  in  which  special  and  detailed 
investigation  seems  most  desirable.  The  great  influence  of  age  and  race  peculiarities  upon  death  rates  must  be 
constantly  borne  in  mind  in  comparing  the  mortality  of  different  districts.

VITAL  STATISTICS. 


Table  67  shows  for  four  groups  of  localities,  in  New  York  city  the  death  rates  per  1,000  of  population  during 
the  census  year,  stillbirths  included,  with  distinction  of  ages.  The  stillbirths  affect  only  the  rates  for  all  ages  and 
for  those  under  1  and  under  5  years  of  age.

In  the  above  table  group  A  includes  wards  7,  10,  and  13,  being  those  inhabited  by  Eussian  and  Polish  Jews. 

(iroup  B  includes  18,  C;  21,  C  and  H;  19,  C;  22,  A  and  1);  and  20,  A  and  E,  being  water  side  districts  with 
comparatively  heavy  death  rates. 

Group  C  includes  wards  1,  2,  4,  14,  15  B,  5  and  8  B,  being  localities  iu  the  lower  part  of  the  city  having  heavy 
death  rates. 

Group  D  includes  IS,  D;  16,  D;  21,  D  and  F;  19,  A,  D,  K,  and  N;  22,  C,  F,  I,  K,  and  M;  aud  12,  A,  E,  H, 
K,  and  L,  being  the  localities  on  high  and  good  ground  covered  by  the  better  class  of  residences. 

It  appears  from  the  above  table  that  the  aggregate  death  rate  is  lowest  where  we  should  expect  to  find  it, 
namely,  in  group  I),  but  that  the  death  rate  of  children  under  1  year  of  age,  under  5  years  of  age,  and  between  5 
and  15  years  of  age  is  lowest  in  group  A,  where  the  general  conditions  of  life  are  much  more  unfavorable,  but 
where  the  population  is  composed  of  Russian  and  Polish  Jews.  At  ages  above  15  the  death  rates  are  greater  in 
group  A  than  those  in  group  D,  but  are  lower  than  those  of  the  other  groups.  For  the  ages  from  15  to  65  the 
highest  death  rate  exists  throughout  in  group  C,  in  which  the  aggregate  death  rate  and  the  death  rate  of  those 
from  15  to  65  years  of  age  are  more  than  double  the  corresponding  rates  in  group  D. 

Table  68  shows  the  death  rate  per  100,000  of  total  population  due  to  certain  causes  in  these  different  groups 
of  districts.

Iii  this  connection  attention  is  invited  to  the  very  interesting  report  by  Dr.  Roger  S.  Tracy  on  the  tenement 
house  census  and  tenement  house  mortality  in  1801,  contained  in  the  annual  report  of  the  board  of  health  for  New 
York  for  the  year  1891  (pages 206-214).  This  report  relates  to  37.35.S  houses,  each  containing  more  than  2  families 
living  independent  of  each  other,  but  excluding  first  class  apartment  houses,  lodging  houses,  and  hotels.  These 
37,358  tenement  houses  were  found  to  contain  276,565  families,  including  100,708  children  under  5  years  of  age 
and  1,064,713  persons  5  years  of  age  and  over,  or  a  total  population  of  1,225,421.  The  same  divisions  into  districts 
were  made  as  those  used  in  this  report,  and  a  comparison  of  the  results  obtained  for  certain  localities  by  the 
census  work  and  the  board  of  health  work  is  given  in  the  following  tables.

«,  b,  c,  ii,  e,  f  See  descriptions  following  Table  71. 

In  considering  the  results  shown  by  these  tables  it  must  be  remembered  that  the  board  of  health  gives  only 
population  of  and  deaths  in  tenement  houses,  while  the  census  gives  total  population  and  deaths  in  the  districts 
named,  which,  however,  were  largely  tenement  house  districts,  and  that  the  board  of  health  gives  the  population 
a  year  later  than  the  census,  when  it  may  be  presumed  to  have  increased.  The  census  death  rates  are  in  every  group 
higher  than  those  of  the  board  of  health,  the  differences  being  greatest  for  the  children  under  5  years  of  age. 
Both  give  the  heaviest  death  rates  to  the  made  land  districts,  and  neither  show  a  specially  heavy  death  rate  in  the 
districts  in  the  vicinity  of  slaughterhouses  for  persons  f>  years  of  age  and  upward,  although  the  death  rate  of 
the  children  in  these  districts  is  rather  high.  The  board  of  health  report  gives  the  lowest  death  rates  to  the 
localities  in  the  viciuity  of  gas  houses,  the  census  report  to  the  districts  bordering  on  the  East  river.  The 
differences  in  the  rates  shown  by  the  two  reports  are  due  in, part  to  the  fact  that  they  relate  to  two  different  years 
and  in  part  to  the  fact  that  the  board  of  health  report  shows  a  greater  number  of  children  under  5  years  of  age 
than  does  the  census  report.  The  conclusions  of  the  two  reports  as  to  the  relative  healthfnlness  of  different 
localities  as  indicated  by  death  rates,  and  especially  by  the  death  rates  of  those  5  years  of  age  and  upward,  are 
iu  most  respects  the  same.

VITAL  STATISTICS. 


ALTITTDE. 

The  influence  of  the  topographical  peculiarities  of  the  different  districts  in  New  York  and  Brooklyn  upon  the 
death  rates  is  due  largely  to  the  relative  altitude  of  each  district  and  to  the  proportion  of  tilled  ground  which  it 
contains. 

The  following  tables  show  the  relations  between  altitude  and  death  rates. 

Table  73  shows  the  average  altitude  of  the  different  districts  in  New  York  and  the  average  annual  death 
rates,  exclusive  of  stillbirths,  during  the  G  years  ending  May  31,  1890,  per  1,000  of  mean  population;  also  the 
average  annual  death  rates  per  100,000  of  mean  population  due  to  certain  specified  causes.

It  will  be  seen  from  these  tables  that  for  the  sanitary  districts  in  New  York  which  are  under  20  feet  in  average 
altitude  the  average  death  rate  is  31.48,  while  for  those  from  20  to  40  feet  high  it  is  28.25;  for  those  from  40  to  60 
feet  high  it  is  24.79;  for  those  from  00  to  80  feet  high  it  is  21.34,  and  for  those  from  80  to  100  feet  high  it  is  17.88. 
In  other  words,  the  average  death  rate  decreases  as  the  average  altitude  increases.  The  exception  to  this  rule  is 
for  the  districts  100  feet  or  more  in  altitude,  where  the  death  rate  is  21.00.  If,  however,  we  take  the  death  rates 
of  children  under  5  years  of  age  we  find  that  the  decrease  continues  to  the  higher  altitude,  the  rates  being  for 
the  districts  under  20  feet  high,  118.59;  for  those  from  20  to  40  feet  high,  110.00;  for  those  from  40  to  60  feet  high, 
100.03;  for  those  from  00  to  80  feet  high,  108.44;  for  those  from  80  to  100  feet  high  it  is  74.45,  and  for  those  100 
feet  and  over  it  is  64.05.  Much  the  same  gradation  occurs  in  Brooklyn,  where  the  death  rates  for  the  districts  under 
20  feet  in  average  altitude  was  27.07;  for  those  from  20  to  40  feet  high,  25.90;  for  those  from  40  to  00  feet  high, 
20.78;  for  those  from  00  to  80  feet  high,  17.02;  for  those  from  80  to  100  feet  high,  15.50.  Here  again  in  the  districts 
100  feet  and  over  the  death  rates  are  higher,  being  23.54. 

In  New  York  the  districts  100  feet  and  over  in  altitude  are  12  H,  showing  an  aggregate  death  rate  of  17.33r 
and  ward  24,  having  an  aggregate  death  rate  of  22.06,  per  1.000  of  population,  and  a  death  rate  from  malarial  fever 
of  84.38  against  a  city  average  of  24.(52  per  100,000  of  population. 

In  Brooklyn  the  districts  over  100  feet  in  height  are  9  B,  death  rate  27.05;  24  E,  death  rate,  18.70;  22  I),  death 
rate,  19.09;  8      death  rate,  25.25;  8  J),  death  rate,  2(5.33;  9  A,  death  rate,  23.91;  and  9  C,  death  rate,  25.S7. 

The  relations  of  altitude  to  the  proportion  of  deaths  caused  by  malarial  fever,  consumption,  and  diarrheal 
diseases  are  indicated  by  the  table.  They  are  well  marked  only  for  the  deaths  from  consumption  and  diarrheal 
diseases.  Thus,  in  New  Vork  city,  in  the  districts  under  20  feet  in  altitude,  the  deaths  from  consumption  were 
404.03  per  100,000  of  the  mean  population;  in  those  from  20  to40feet  high,  378.09;  in  those  from  40  to  00  feet  high. 
291.27 :  in  those  from  00  to  so  feet  high,  2:51.35;  and  in  those  from  80  to  100  feet  high,  192.42. 

In  Brooklyn  the  corresponding  figures  are  for  altitudes  under  20  feet,  304.50;  for  those  from  20  to  40  feet  high, 
.504.70;  for  those  from  40  to  (50  feet  high  247.2.5;  for  those  from  00  to  SO  feet  high,  105.10;  and  for  those  80  to  100 
feet  high,  171.L'7. 

In  each  city  the  proportion  of  deaths  from  Consumption  increases  in  the  districts  having  an  average  altitude  of 
100  feet  and  over,  it  being  in  New  York  290.89 and  in  Brooklyn  287.59.

From  this  table  it  will  be  seen  that  the  average  altitude  in  Brooklyn  is  lower  than  in  New  York,  but  that  a 
smaller  proportion  of  the  population  of  Brooklyn  resides  in  the  low  districts  than  is  the  case  in  New  Y'ork.  The 
lower  districts  are,  as  a  rule,  less  desirable  places  of  residence,  and  contain  a  greater  proportion  of  the  foreign  white 
population  than  of  the  native  whites  with  native  parents.  But  the  death  rates  of  the  native  whites  are  also  greater 
than  those  of  the  foreign  in  other  districts,  because  the  former  contain  a  greater  proportion  of  infants  and  children 
than  the  latter.

VITAL  STATISTICS. 


The  relation  between  the  density  of  population  and  the  death  rates  in  the  different  localities  is  not  as  evident 
as  that  between  the  altitudes  and  death  rates,  but  is  nevertheless  interesting.  In  New  York,  in  those  districts 
having-  a  population  of  less  than  100  persons  to  the  acre,  the  death  rate  was  22.76;  in  those  having  a  population  of 
from  100  to  200  persons  to  the  acre  it  was  29.53;  in  those  having  a  population  of  from  200  to  300  persons  to  the  acre 
it  was  28.73;  and  in  those  having  a  population  of  300  persons  and  over  to  the  acre  it  was  27.57.  It  must  be 
remembered,  however,  that  in  the  most  crowded  or  tenement  house  districts  the  proportion  of  the  foreign  white 
population  to  the  native  w  hite  population  is  greater  than  it  is  in  other  localities,  and  the  relatively  smaller  number 
of  young  children  among  the  foreign  white  population  tends  to  decrease  the  death  rate  in  these  crowded  districts. 
The  age  distribution  of  the  population  must  be  constantly  borne  in  mind  in  considering  these  rates. 

If  we  take  the  native  white  of  native  parents  alone  the  gradation  of  the  death  rates  in  relation  to  density  of 
population  is  well  marked.  Thus,  in  New  York  city,  in  districts  having  a  density  of  less  than  100  persons  to  the 
acre  the  death  rate  of  this  class  was  21. SO:  in  those  districts  having  from  100  to  200  persons  to  the  acre  it  was 
31.04;  in  those  districts  having  from  200  to  300  persons  to  the  acre  it  was  34.11,  and  in  those  having  .">00  or 
more  persons  to  the  acre  it  was  43.12. 

In  Brooklyn,  for  the  native  whites  of  all  ages,  the  death  rate  in  those  districts  containing  less  than  40  persons 
to  the  acre  was  21.10;  in  those  containing  from  40  to  80  persons  to  the  acre,  22.20;  in  those  containing  from  80  to 
120  persons  to  the  acre,  25.28;  and  in  those  containing  120  or  more  persons  to  the  acre  it  was  29.34. 

Table  76  shows  the  area  and  population  of  the  different  districts  in  New  York  on  June  1,  1890,  and  the 
average  annual  death  rates  during  the  6  years  ending  May  31,  1890.  per  1,000  of  mean  population,  with  distinction 
of  color,  nativity,  and  parental  nativity,  according  to  density  ot  population.

To  give  .some  idea  of  the  relations  between  rilled  ground,  vicinity  of  parks  and  open  spaces,  character  of 
habitations  and  other  local  peculiarities,  and  the  death  rates  of  the  different  districts,  the  following-  general 
topographical  descriptions  of  the  two  cities  and  of  each  ward  and  sanitary  district  therein  are  appended. 


NEW  YORK. 


New  York  city  is  situated  in  the  extreme  southern  part  of  the  state  of  New  York,  at  the  confluence  of  the 
North,  or  Hudson,  river  with  the  waters  of  Long  Island  sound,  familiarly  known  as  the  East  river,  40°  42'  north 
latitude,  and  longitude  74°  west  from  Greenwich.  Tbe  principal  portion  of  the  city  is  on  Manhattan  island,  the 
lowest  point  of  which  is  on  a  level  with  the  sea,  while  the  highest  point,  at  Fort  Washington,  is  271  feet  above 
the  sea  level. 

In  the  district  north  of  Manhattan  island,  and  within  the  corporate  limits,  the  highest  point  is  at  Riverdale, 
in  the  Twenty-fourth  ward,  where  an  elevation  of  282  feet  above  the  sea  level  is  reached. 

Manhattan  island  is  bounded  on  the  north  and  east  by  the  Spuyten  Duyvil  creek  and  Harlem  river,  on  the 
east  and  south  by  the  East  river,  and  on  the  west  by  the  Hudson  river,  its  long  axis  running  from  north-northeast 
to  south-southwest.  That  part  of  the  city  on  the  mainland,  including  the  Twenty-third  and  Twenty-fourth 
wards,  is  bounded  on  the  north  by  the  Yonkers  city  line,  on  the  east  by  the  Bronx  river,  on  the  south  by  the  East 
river  and  Harlem  Kills,  and  on  the  west  by  the  Harlem  river,  Spuyten  Duyvil  creek,  and  Hudson  river. 

In  addition  to  the  above,  the  corporate  limits  included  on  June  1, 1890,  Blackwells,  Wards,  Randalls,  and  Harts 
islands,  in  the  East  river.  Governors,  Bedloes,  and  Ellis  islands,  in  the  upper  bay,  were  owned  and  occupied  by 
the  United  States  government,  but  in  this  report  are  considered  as  belonging  to  ward  1. 

The  total  area  of  the  city,  including  the  islands  mentioned,  was  25,818  acres,  or  40.34  square  miles.  Manhattan 
island  alone  had  an  area  of  12,606  acres.  The  aggregate  area  of  Blackwells,  Wards,  and  Randalls  islands,  in  the 
East  river,  was  420  acres,  and  that  of  Governors,  Bedloes,  and  Ellis  islands,  in  the  bay,  was  77  acres. 

The  extreme  length  of  the  city  was  21.1  miles,  the  island  being  13.5  miles  in  length.  The  average  width  of  the 
city  below  One  hundred  and  twenty-fifth  street  was  about  2.08  miles. 

The  elevations  of  the  different  portions  of  the  city  are  shown  by  the  contour  lines  on  the  maps  accompanying 
this  report,  but  the  original  topography  is  of  great  interest  in  its  relation  to  the  death  rates  and  to  certain  causes 
of  death  in  the  different- districts.  In  this  connection,  see  the  remarks  on  the  causes  of  pneumonia  on  page  39  of 
this  report. 

On  Manhattan  island,  below  Canal  street,  there  was  originally  very  little  land.  A  deep  creek  existed  along 
the  course  of  Broad  street  nearly  to  Wall  street ;  another  ran  up  Maiden  lane  to  Nassau  street,  and  a  depression 
penetrated  as  far  as  East  Broadway  from  Peck  slip.  Just  below  that  point  a  low  marsh  nearly  connected  the  East 
river  with  the  Collect  pond.  This  was  a  fresh  water  pond,  covering  several  acres,  located  near  the  center  of  the 
present  Sixth  ward.  It  was  supplied  with  springs;  wras  about  40  feet  deep,  and  in  the  summer  of  1796  was  the 
scene  of  the  trial  of  John  Fitch's  screw-propeller  steamboat.  The  water  of  this  pond  discharged  into  the  Hudson 
river  through  a  depression  at  Canal  street,  its  channel  being  joined  by  that  of  another  marshy  stream  running 
from  Reade  street,  west  of  West  Broadway.  There  was  thus  a  continuous  swamp  separating  the  lower  part  of  the 
island  from  the  higher  ground  north  of  Canal  and  Pearl  streets.  This  higher  ground,  with  the  exception  of  an 
extensive  swamp  on  the  east  side,  covering  the  greater  portion  of  the  present  Eleventh  ward,  was  well  elevated 
above  the  tide  level,  and  parts  of  it  were  of  tolerably  uniform  grade.  It  was  penetrated  by  the  valley  of  Minetta 
brook,  which  led  to  the  Hudson  river  at  about  West  Houston  street,  and  which  extended  as  far  as  Twentieth  street 
and  Fifth  avenue.  Another  brook  of  considerable  size,  commencing  in  the  vicinity  of  Madison  square,  discharged 
into  the  East  river. 

The  streams  above  mentioned  became  obliterated  so  long  ago  that  few  remember  their  existence  or  locality. 
In  the  grading  and  filling  process  both  swamp  land  and  hills  have  disappeared  and  the  city  prison  (The  Tombs)  now 
stands  on  the  land  covered  by  the  old  Collect  pond,  while  the  adjacent  ground  has  become  the  most  densely 
populated  of  any  portion  of  this  country. 

In  the  northern  portion  of  the  island  above  Eighty  sixth  street  the  land  reached  its  greatest  elevation  west 
of  Eighth  avenue,  the  average  altitude  being  between  100  and  200  feet.  East  of  Central  park  and  along  the  Harlem 
river  very  little  of  the  land  exceeded  20  feet  altitude  above  tidewater  and  much  of  it  was  below  tidewater.  From 
Ninety-second  street  to  One  hundred  and  fourth  street,  east  of  Third  avenue,  was  one  entire  swamp.  At  One 
hundred  and  eighth  street  a  large  stream  having  its  origin  in  the  highlands  about  One  hundred  and  thirty-fifth 
street  and  Tenth  avenue,  and  passing  through  the  northeast  corner  of  Central  park,  discharged  into  the  East  river. 
Before  reaching  Central  park,  and  thence  to  the  East  river,  this  stream  spread  out  into  a  marsh. 

In  addition  to  the  changes  caused  by  grading  and  filling,  the  original  shore  line  has  been  pushed  out  by 
filling,  until  at  present  the  whole  water  front  below  Twenty-sixth  street  is  two  or  three  blocks  in  advance  of  the 
original  line.

VITAL  STATISTICS. 


The  original  shore  line  between  Dover  street  on  the  east  and  Little  West  Twelfth  street  on  the  west  very 
closely  approximated  the  present  location  of  the  Third  avenue  and  the  Ninth  avenue  elevated  railroads, 
respectively.  Above  Little  West  Twelfth  street,  on  the  west  side,  it  may  be  said  to  have  followed  the  line  of 
Washington  street  to  Tenth  avenue,  along  Tenth  avenue  to  Twenty-sixth  street,  thence  diagonally  to  Fiftieth 
street.  Above  Dover  street,  on  the  east,  it  followed  about  the  line  of  Cherry  street  as  far  as  Clinton  street,  thence 
along  Water  street  to  Corlears  street,  in  the  line  of  which  it  followed  to  Lewis  street,  along  Lewis  street  and  in  the 
same  line  to  avenue  D,  from  which  point  it  proceeded  diagonally  to  Eighteenth  street  and  First  avenue.  From  the 
intersection  of  Eighteenth  street  it  followed  about  the  line  of  First  avenue,  with  a  slight  bend  outward,  as  far  as 
Fortieth  street. 

The  amount  of  land  thus  reclaimed  from  the  streams  below  the  points  indicated,  and  then  solidly  occupied,  is 
approximately  stated  as  follows:  in  ward  1,  93  acres,  or  35.23  per  cent  of  the  ward's  area;  in  ward  2,  27  acres,  or 
.15. .33  per  cent;  in  ward  3,  38  acres,  or  37.25  per  cent;  in  ward  4,  32  acres,  or  39.02  per  cent;  in  ward  5,  43  acres,  or 
20.54  per  cent;  in  ward  7,  58  acres,  or  28.71  per  cent;  in  ward  8,  19  acres,  or  11.18  per  cent;  in  ward  9,  104  acres, 
or  32.91  per  cent;  in  ward  11,  59  acres,  or  27.06  per  cent;  in  ward  13,  34  acres,  or  31.19  per  cent;  in  w^ard  10,  S8 
acres,  or  26.51  per  cent;  in  ward  18,  106  acres,  or  24.60  per  cent;  in  ward  20,  88  acres,  or  19.86  per  cent;  and  in 
ward  21.  32  acres,  or  7. SO  per  cent  making  a  total  of  821  acres  thus  added  to  the  area  of  the  city  below  Fiftieth 
street. 

Accompanying  this  report  will  be  found  a  special  map  of  New  York,  on  tracing  paper,  showing  the  original 
shore  line  and  marshy  tracts,  which  has  been  reproduced  from  the  map  published  in  the  Tenth  Census  report  upon 
social  statistics  of  cities.  By  overlaying  this  upon  the  colored  maps  the  relations  of  tilled  ground  to  the  death  rates 
in  particular  localities  may  be  clearly  traced. 

The  elevations  above  mean  sea  level  Mere:  at  City  Hall  park,  corner  of  Broadway  and  Chambers  streets,  38 
feet;  along  Canal  street  from  the  Hudson  river  to  Center  street,  and  along  Baxter  and  Boosevelt  streets  to  James 
slip,  8  feet;  First  avenue  and  Forty-second  street,  72  feet;  Thirty-ninth  street  between  Madison  and  Fifth  avenues, 
79  feet;  Fifty-first  street  and  Fifth  avenue,  72  feet:  Fifth  avenue  and  Seventieth  to  Seventy-first  street,  80  feet; 
Fourth  avenue  and  Ninety-third  street,  115  feet :  Ninth  avenue  and  Sixty-first  street,  91  feet;  between  Seventy-sixth 
and  Seventy-ninth  streets  and  Ninth  and  Tenth  avenues,  95  feet.  Above  this  point  the  elevations  varied  up  to 
271  feet  at  One  hundred  and  eighty-fourth  street  and  Thirteenth  avenue,  on  the  island,  and  282  feet  at  Riverdale 
in  ward  24. 

The  line  of  the  Bowery  from  Chatham  square  to  Union  square,  and  thence  along  Broadway  to  Madison  square, 
occupied  the  ridge  of  the  island,  the  ground  sloping  on  either  hand  toward  the  river  with  an  average  elevation 
above  tide  water  of  from  40  to  45  feet  in  its  whole  length. 

The  land  included  in  a  line  drawn  from  One  hundred  and  fifty-fifth  street  and  Eighth  avenue  to  One  hundred 
and  tenth  street,  to  Fifth  avenue,  to  avenue  A  and  Ninety-second  street  at  the  East  river,  and  thence  up  the  river 
to  the  place  of  beginning  was  known  as  the  Harlem  plains,  with  an  average  elevation  of  from  10  to  25  feet  above 
high  tide.  Mount  Morris  square,  with  an  elevation  of  101  feet,  being  the  only  exception.  The  small  hills  to  the 
southeast  of  the  plains  had  an  average  elevation  of  about  50  feet;  while  those  along  Seventh  avenue,  from  One 
hundred  and  thirty-fifth  street  to  One  hundred  and  fifty-fifth  street,  ranged  from  30  to  50  feet. 

DENSITY  OF  POPULATION. 

The  city  (including  the  islands  in  the  bay)  had  on  June  1,  1890.  a  total  area  of  25,818  acres  and  a  total 
population  of  1,515.301,  the  number  of  persons  to  each  acre  of  total  area  being  58.69. 

The  city  records  did  not  afford  information  as  to  the  area  of  all  open  spaces,  including  streets  and  alleys  in 
each  ward,  from  which  the  density  of  population  to  the  acre  of  actual  building  area  on  Manhattan  island  could  be 
computed,  but  the  park  and  cemetery  area  included  an  aggregate  of  1,220  acres  on  Manhattan  island,  leaving 
11,386  acres  occupied  by  streets  and  buildings,  giving  a  population  of  125.70  to  the  acre. 

The  number  of  dwellings  in  the  city  was  81,828,  containing  312,766  families,  and  a  total  population  of  1.515,301, 
giving  an  average  of  4.84  persons  to  a  family,  and  3.82  families  and  18.52  persons  to  a  dwelling. 

Of  the  total  population,  1,010,78'i,  or  66.71  per  cent,  resided  in  23.506  dwellings  containing  21  or  more  persons. 
Of  this  number -of  dwellings,  8,313  contained  from  21  to  30  persons,  9,350  from  31  to  50  persons,  5,460  from  51  to 
100  persons,  and  473  over  100  persons. 

In  comparison  with  these  figures  Brooklyn  had  25.70  per  cent  of  its  population  living  in  dwellings  of  21  or 
more  persons;  Jersey  city,  23.53  per  cent;  Cincinnati,  21.92  percent;  Chicago,  16.(53  percent;  Boston,  13.93  per 
cent;  Newark,  10.25  per  cent;  St.  Louis,  10.14  per  cent;  Buffalo,  8.09  per  cent;  Providence.  7.49  per  ceutj

SANITARY  DISTRICTS. 

To  obtain  data  with  regard  to  the  relation  between  local  sanitary  conditions  and  death  rates  the  city  was 
subdivided,  within  ward  lines,  into  114  sanitary  districts,  the  inner  boundaries  of  which  arc  indicated  upon  the 
maps  by  dotted  lines,  while  the  ward  boundaries  are  indicated  by  heavier  lines  of  solid  color. 

In  the  small  tables  given  for  each  sanitary  district  the  statement  showing  death  rates  per  1,000  of  white 
population  is  exclusive  of  stillbirths,  while  the  rates  given  according  to  birthplaces  of  mothers  include  stillbirths. 

The  statement  concerning  the  highest  and  lowest  rates  according  to  birthplaces  of  mothers  refer  only  to  those 
birthplaces  given  in  the  comparative  tables  in  which  the  numbers  of  population  and  of  deaths  arc  of  sufficient  size 
to  warrant  comparison.  Rates  quoted  for  persons  whose  mothers  were  born  in  "  Other  foreign  countries  "  relate 
only  to  those  foreign  countries  not  specified  in  Table  79,  and  do  not  include  all  other  foreign  countries  besides 
those  stated  in  the  small  tables  given  for  each  sanitary  district. 

It  is  to  be  distinctly  understood  that  in  these  descriptions  the  remarks  about  character  of  buildings  and  of 
inhabitants  of  the  several  districts  apply  to  the  period  for  which  the  deaths  were  returned,  and  not  to  the  present 
time.  The  statements  are  purely  historical,  and  are  intended  to  furnish  the  means  of  estimating  the  relations  of 
altitude,  character  of  people,  and  nature  of  surroundings  to  the  death  rates  during  the  6  years  ending  May  31, 
1S!)0;  and  while  no  doubt  many  of  the  conditions  referred  to  still  exist,  yet  numerous  changes  have  occurred  which 
might  modify  the  characteristics  of  the  districts  as  given  herein. 

WARD  1. 


This  ward  contained  264  acres,  T.'Hi  dwellings,  aud  a  total  population  of  11,122.    Excluding  24  acres  of  parks, 
there  were  40.34  persons  to  each  acre,  and  15.11  persons  to  each  dwelling. 
Battery  park  and  the  Immigrant  depot  were  in  this  ward. 

Sanitary  district  A. — Bounded  by  Liberty  street,  Broadway,  State  and  Whitehall  streets,  Xew  York  bay, 
and  the  Hudson  river.  Area,  83  acres;  dwellings,  341;  population,  8,129.  Battery  park,  containing  24  acres,  was 
in  this  district,  excluding  which  the  population  density  was  137.78  to  the  acre  aud  23.84  to  each  dwelling.  It 
contained  1,731  families,  giving  an  average  of  4.70  persons  to  the  family  and  5.08  families  to  each  dwelling. 

It  was  almost  entirely  made  ground  west  of  Greenwich  street  and  was  essentially  a  business  district,  containing 
a  few  tenements  of  a  poor  class  and  some  sailors'  boarding  houses.  On  Washington  street  near  the  northern 
boundary  was  a  colony"  of  about  100  Arabs  and  Syrians,  a  rather  uncleanly  class.  The  cemetery  of  Trinity  church 
was  in  this  district,  but  interments  were  made  in  vaults  only.  One  soap  factory  was  located  in  this  district. 
Prior  to  1890  Castle  Garden  was  used  for  the  landing  of  immigrants. 

The  death  rates  in  this  district,  compared  with  the  average  rates  for  the  city,  were  as  follows:

VITAL  STATISTICS. 


During  the  6-year  period  the  death  rate  in  this  district  was  very  much  above  the  city  average,  and  especially 
so  for  the  foreign.  For  those  15  years  of  age  and  upward,  according  to  birthplaces  of  mothers,  it  was  highest 
among  the  Irish,  being  40.72  as  against  34.20  for  the  Americans  and  30.95  for  the  Germans. 

Scarlet  fever,  typhoid  fever,  malarial  fever,  diphtheria  and  croup,  diarrheal  diseases,  consumption,  pueumonia, 
measles,  whooping  cough,  heart  disease  and  dropsy,  childbirth,  diseases  of  the  liver,  and  diseases  of  the  urinary 
organs  caused  more  than  the  average  proportion  of  deaths.  The  number  of  deaths  from  accidents  in  this  district 
during  the  6-year  period  was  158,  and  from  suicides  17,  giving  an  average  annual  death  rate  per  100,000  of  280.68  for 
accidents  and  30.20  for  suicides,  each  being  much  above  the  average,  which  was  for  accidents  98.14  and  for 
suicides  15.67. 

Sanitary  district  B. — Bounded  by  Liberty  street,  Maiden  lane,  the  East  river,  Broadway,  and  State  and 
Whitehall  streets.  Area,  104  acres;  number  of  dwellings,  333;  population,  2,521,  giving  a  population  density  of 
24.24  to  the  acre  and  7.57  to  each  dwelling. 

It  was  made  ground  east  of  Pearl  street  and  was  essentially  a  business  district. 

The  death  rates  in  this  district,  compared  with  the  average  rates  for  the  city,  were  as  follows:

VITAL  STATISTICS. 


During'  the  G-year  period  the  death  rate  in  this  ward  was  higher  than  in  any  other  district  in  the  city,  and  for 
the  native  white  of  native  parents  it  was  more  than  double  the  average  rate.  For  those  15  years  of  age  and 
upward  it  was  01.40  for  those  having  American  mothers,  while  the  general  city  average  was  15.91. 

These  heavy  death  rates  were  principally  due  to  consumption,  pneumonia,  heart  disease  and  dropsy,  diseases  of 
the  nervous  system,  and  diseases  of  the  urinary  organs.  Typhoid  fever,  malarial  fever,  diarrheal  diseases,  childbirth, 
and  diseases  of  the  liver  also  caused  more  than  the  average  proportion  of  deaths.  The  death  rate  from  accidents- 
per  100,000  of  population  was  700.15.  The  total  population  was  small,  and  the  rates  would  have  a  large  possible 
terror  if  the  data  related  to  a  single  year  only,  but  being  for  6  years  they  have  considerable  significance.

During  the  6-year  period  the  death  rate  in  this  district  was  much  above  the  city  average.  Diphtheria  and 
eronp.  diarrheal  diseases,  typhoid  fever,  consumption,  pneumonia,  measles,  diseases  of  the  nervous  system,  and 
diseases  of  the  urinary  organs  caused  more  than  the  average  proportion  of  deaths.  The  proportion  of  stillbirths 
per  100,000  of  population  during  the  6-year  period  was  301.0(5  against  225.41.  the  average  for  the  city.  Of  15S 
deaths  occurring  among  the  Chinese  in  this  district  during  the  6-year  period,  120  were  due  to  consumption,  which 
accounts  for  a  part  of  the  extraordinary  heavy  death  rate  given  for  this  disease.  Attention  has  already  been 
called  above  (page  22),  to  the  fact  that  the  extraordinary  death  rate  among  the  Chinese  in  this  district  was  due 
to  the  fact  that  it  contained  a  hospital  to  wbich  Chinese  affected  with  consumption  were  brought  from  all  parts  of 
the  city,  it  will  be  observed,  however,  that  the  death  rate  of  the  native  white  of  native  parents  and  of  those  15 
years  of  age  and  upward  of  Irish  and  German  mothers  was  also  greatly  above  the  average.

During  the  6-year  period  the  death  rate  in  this  district  was  considerably  above  the  city  average  for  those  of 
native  birth  and  below  the  city  average  for  those  of  foreign  birth.  According  to  the  birthplaces  of  mothers,  the 
death  rate  among  the  Russian  and  Polish  Jews  of  the  tenement  house  population  was  less  than  that  of  any  other 
nationality,  both  for  those  under  and  those  over  15  years  of  age.  The  highest  death  rate  of  those  under  5  years  of 
age  occurs  among  the  native  white  of  native  parents. 

Scarlet  fever,  diphtheria  and  croup,  pneumonia,  and  childbirth  caused  more  than  the  average  proportion  of 
deaths.

containing  16  dwellings,  and  a  population  on  June  1,  1890,  of  6,910. 

As  far  as  could  be  determined  from  the  records  kept  in  the  institutions  the  deaths  of  adults  occurring  on 
Blackwells  island  were  distributed  among  the  districts  in  the  city  according  to  the  residences  firoin  which  the. 
decedents  were  sent  to  the  island,  hence  the  death  rates  of  this  district  have  no  significance  except  for  the  children.

VITAL  STATISTICS. 


Of  the  431  deaths  not  assigned  to  other  districts,  which  were  reported  from  Blackwells  island  during  the  6-year 
period,  159  were  stillbirths  and  166  were  of  infants  under  3  months  of  age.  This  heavy  death  rate  among  the  infants 
was  not  due  to  epidemic  disease  nor  to  unsanitary  conditions  of  the  environment,  but  mainly  to  congenital  want 
of  vitality,  expressed  by  the  terms  debility,  inanition,  etc. 

The  annual  report  of  the  board  of  health  for  the  year  ending  December  31,  1890,  shows  1,279  deaths  as  having 
occurred  in  institutions  in  this  district  during  that  period,  giving  a  death  rate  of  185.09  per  1,000  of  population  as 
reported  June  1,  1890.

BROOKLYN. 


Brooklyn  is  located  at  the  western  extremity  of  Long  island,  latitude  40°  41'  north,  longitude  73°  59'  west 
from  Greenwich. 

The  elevations  ranged  from  sea  level  to  about  200  feet  at  several  points  in  the  Eighth  waul. 

Except  along  the  water  front,  and  adjacent  to  the  streams  and  estuaries,  the  land  was  of  a  gently  rolling 
character,  well  elevated  and  drained,  the  most  abrupt  change  in  level  being  in  the  Eighth  and  Twenty-second 
wards,  in  the  southwest  part  of  the  cJty. 

Along  Newtown  creek  there  was  an  extensive  salt  water  marsh,  under  water  at  high  tide,  and  another  extensive 
marsh  existed  along  the  old  line  between  Williamsburg  and  Greenpoint.  The  whole  of  the  area  now  covered  by 
the  navy  yard  was  under  water,  one  branch  extending,  with  marshy  banks,  nearly  to  Washington  park,  and 
another  followed  about  the  line  of  Kent  avenue,  Wallabout  street,  and  Nostrand  avenue  as  far  as  Myrtle  avenue, 
with  more  or  less  marsh  on  each  side. 

Almost  all  of  the  Twelfth  ward,  excepting  the  point  known  as  "  Red  Hook",  was  either  wholly  under  water 
or  overflowed  by  the  tides,  and  the  Gowanus  canal  was  originally  an  inlet  from  the  bay  with  marshy  branches 
extending  in  all  directions  and  spreading  out  over  the  lowlands.  The  space  between  First  and  Fourth  avenues, 
First  and  Fifth  streets,  in  the  Tenth  and  Twenty-second  wards,  was  a  salt  water  pond. 

Generally  speaking,  the  orginal  shore  line  followed  very  closely  the  10-foot  contour  line  indicated  on  the 
accompanying  series  of  maps,  and  it  was  gradually  extended  considerably  beyond  this  line,  along  the  whole  water 
front,  the  extension  being  greatest  in  the  Sixth,  Eighth,  and  Twelfth  wards  and  around  Wallabout  bay. 

Of  the  several  inlets  penetrating  into  the  city,  many  have  been  entirely  obliterated  by  filling,  and  others  were 
first  contracted  and  converted  into  canals,  serving  the  double  purpose  of  navigation  and  open  sewerage. 

A  special  map  of  Brooklyn,  upon  tracing  paper,  is  introduced,  showing  the  original  shore  line,  waterways,  and 
marshy  tracts.  This  map  was  reproduced  by  permission  of  the  local  board  of  health  authorities  from  a  similar 
map  published  in  the  report  of  the  board  of  health  for  187G,  and  by  overlaying  it  upon  the  shaded  maps  the 
relations  of  filled  ground  to  heavy  death  rates  will  be  clearly  seen. 

The  shaded  maps  show  the  location  of  each  district  aud  also  the  elevations  in  contour  lines  of  10  feet  intervals. 

DENSITY  OF  POPULATION. 

The  total  area  of  the  city,  measured  to  the  water  line,  was  18,0S4  acres,  and  the  popula  tion  on  June  1,  1890, 
was  806,343,  giving  an  average  of  44.59  persons  to  each  acre  of  total  area.  The  actual  building  area,  however,  was 
much  less,  there  being  actually  within  the  city  limits  648  acres  embraced  in  parks,  721  in  cemeteries,  137  in  the  navy 
yard,  and  410  acres  covered  by  water  in  the  bays,  docks,  and  canals.  In  addition  to  these  the  Twenty-sixth  ward 
contained  about  1,000  acres  of  salt  water  marsh  or  meadow  along  Jamaica  hay.  Excluding  these  areas,  the  remainder 
is  found  to  be  15,168  acres,  and  the  population  density  rises  to  53.16  persons  to  the  acre.  The  area  covered  by  streets 
and  alleys  was  not  reported  by  the  local  officials. 

There  are  great  differences,  however,  in  the  density  of  population  in  different  parts  of  the  city,  as  will  be  seen 
in  some  of  the  tables  as  well  as  in  the  descriptions  of  the  sanitary  districts  into  which  the  city  was  subdivided. 

At  the  close  of  the  census  year,  June  1,  1890,  the  number  of  dwellings  in  the  city  was  82,282,  or  454  more  than 
in  New  York.  These  dwellings  coutaiued  170,970  families,  aggregating  806,343  persons,  making  an  average  of 
4.72  persons  to  each  family  and  9.80  persons  to  each  dwelling. 

SANITARY  DISTRICTS. 

The  characteristics  of  the  several  sanitary  districts  are  shown  in  the  description  given  below.  These  notes 
relate  to  the  time  the  districts  were  determined,  and  may  not  now  be  entirely  applicable  to  any  particular  locality, 
owing  to  changes  since  made. 

As  in  New  York,  the  statement  of  the  death  rates  in  each  district  per  1,000  of  white  population  is  exclusive  of 
stillbirths,  while  the  rates,  according  to  birthplaces  of  mothers,  include  stillbirths.
